I bought a product from GardensAlive: beetleJUS!® Beetle Control for Ornamentals and Vegetables, but have yet to use it. I haven't had a ton of the beetles and prefer to hand pick off my basil and zinnias. I've also picked them off my weed plants but they don't seem to have a taste for them YET.Even though I'm over here in Massachusetts, we had a lot of stink bugs last year and this year we hardly seen any. This year. The two main pests are of course mosquitoes which have been super bad this year and Japanese beetles. Them damn Beatles have reached havoc on everything. Not just my plants but everything. I've noticed an increase of the assassin bugs which I know they're beneficial. So I would like to think that the assassin bugs are doing their job.
