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.

small black bugs eating tomatoes

18 years ago

late last summer my tomatoes were infested with these tiny black bugs which burrow inside tomato fruit and eat away! They ruin the tomato, and I lost approx half my small crop due to these critters. I dont want it to happen this year. Help!
