My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

I dropped the SVB eggs!

12 years ago

This may be overkill but bear with me here...

Last year, SVB destroyed my zucchini plants. This year I have been pretty vigilant. I look at my plants every day and pick off any eggs that I see.

Today I found about 5, and as I was picking two off I accidentally dropped them near the plant. I have cedar mulch in my raised beds so needless to say, there was no finding them.

Should I be concerned? Should I spray the soil and my plant tonight with insecticidal soap? What would you do?

HELP!!!!!!
