Then I used Malathion and Triazicide - they work too well. They kill all bugs. But the plants start looking a lot better quickly.

I want to believe there is some sort of organic pest control that really works and I just haven't found it yet.
Awesome lol well im going to try this Mr Earth stuff and see how it works. I'm sure with the combination of diatomaceous earth, gnat knix, mr earth and predatory insects and lizards I should make an impact.
