They feed from the plant juices below the leaf surface and respond to surface insecticides only when sprayed on the undersides hitting each insect. Use Black Leaf 40 tobacco preparation or a kerosene emulsion stock diluted tenfold, applying directly to insects with a forceful spray and adding laundry soap to improve spread and sticking. For identification send specimens to M A C Winnipeg with samples for insect inquiries and receive control methods by return mail.
