millipede invasion around garage

Tech Support — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 03:07:37 +0000

Please give me your advice on which product to use for millipedes in this situation: Plant beds on both sides of garage door located in south Florida. Millipedes enter underneath closed door and climb interior garage walls. If not vacuumed out, there are 3 dozen in a week. A few climb outside walls. Can a liquid be used to treat both soil (not many square feet) and entrance to garage? What product would you recommend? Or, would granules be better? Thanks, J.T.

when to spray for stink bugs

Tech Support — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 21:35:55 +0000

I am in Western Maryland and have had a stink bug problem for the past two years. This year I purchased wet vacuum and was vacuuming them up and drowning them, but have given up after filling my two gallon wet vac and dumping it three times. I did not want to resort to using chemicals, but now I feel it is my only alternative. I would like to know when would be the best time to spray for these bugs so I will not have them next year. I live on 7 acres so there is plenty of plant life for them to eat. They are on my house and last year I vacuumed up all of the ones I could find in the attic. I think they are living in my siding. They seem to travel up the siding and chimney to the attic.

organic ground beetle spray

I keep an organic garden which is mostly insect free. Occasionally I've had white flies and aphids but was able to treat the problem using your insect soap. But lately I've seen large ground beetles and they're pretty tough. The soap doesn't seem to work on them too well. Do you have something stronger thats still organic?
