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.

nematodes for cuke beetles?

21 years ago

We are suffering through our second generation of cucumber beetles this summer and are researching ways to control them better next year.

I've read that beneficial nematodes are good to use in the garden and will eat the CB larva.

Has anyone used these nematodes with any success or have any other experience with, or knowledge of, them to offer? Thanks...
