Marsha you recommended Permethrin in the past, which brand? Sorry to hijack the thread.

Martin's permethrin 10%, I got it last time from "do my own pest control". 1 teaspoon per gallon water. They say not for plants but safe for use on dogs, and I know it's exactly the same as pyrethrins gotten from chrysanthemums, only synthetic. I am very comfortable in it's safety.
Ella, you should do it every 4 days for 3 times. Kill off the new hatchlings.
Your peppers look fabulous.
