I am adamant in not using any kind of chemicals/introduced fungus/man made fungus etc.Instead I will use the cost of the chemicals etc. and buy some live ladybugs,lacewings,and now the parasitic wasps that are available.Since we in Florida have a ecosystem that is fragile with our groundwater I think it is prudent to keep the nuclear pesticides at bay.In my Homestead neighborhood it is a shame to see the chemicals they pump into the ground and air for the crops nowadays.In my little oasis we enjoy the millions of insects,anoles(lizards etc.) birds,bees, fauna and most important flowering plants (food/nectar)that seem to compliment each other and keeping nature in check.Plus I gave up growing anything delicate outside(containers in a pool screen enclosed garden).A old farmer told me "You are what you eat".
