36 hours have passed since the latest application of Diatomaceous Earth for stinkbug (Brown Marmorated Stinkbug) control. We are seeing good results. As we mentioned in the previous post the crop killing insurgents have been suppressed to several specific areas of the pumpkin plot. These areas were heavily dusted. Upon inspection this morning no bugs were observed in the copiously treated areas, diminished numbers in the areas with less dusting.
DE is not an insecticide like some chemicals are, however we feel that using organic substances outweighs the benefit of immediate kill by using non-organic insecticides.
Please take the time to review the following slide show. Please comment with ideas, suggestions, criticisms or further information.
