We seem to be growing a fine crop of these guys right now-and little else.
UgH!
Also known as grape leaf skeletonizers. They showed up last year and decimated all the
vegetation on my grapevines before I even realized what was happening.
So this year I was determined to stay ahead of the game.
Faithfully every morning I would go out and pick the affected leaves off the vine-with their little clusters of nasty caterpillars.
But then real life intervenes, early morning appointments, the heat and lack of time.
So today I zapped them with the bug killer.
It felt real good.

Ugh is right! No Fair! I hope your bug zapper does the job!
those are nasty. now i can see how you get satisfaction from squashing the life out of those little buggers....
Sure hope you GOT them. You have such a good thing going, would hate to have those little creatures ruin it!
Are you adding them to your pounds for the month? :o) We really did pray for your garden. Do we need to start it up again?
Ewww, ewww, and ewww.
Have you tried chickens?
Ugh is right! Those are ugly, I really really really hate it when I find bugs in my garden. I try to go organic and some years it works out, some years it doesn't. This year I just don't have time to keep monitoring it so I had to get out the bug spray :(
