Last year, regardless of what I did, my eggplants sucumbed to Colorado Potato Bugs. I ended up planting in containers up by the house. This year I planted a large square of bush beans and planted eggplants in the middle. I had a few CPBs in the beginning which I picked off. But as the the beans grew, the CPBs disappeared! Now if I could only win the battle with squash bugs and this year's onslaught of grass hoppers. I put my guineas in the fenced garden, but they seem to prefer my tomatoes over the grasshoppers!
