Garden trends show tomato beetle problem in Clermont County
Clermont County Extension Agent Bob Sutton reports two main issues from farmer and gardener calls. Japanese beetles appear in Milford to Loveland areas, with control tips focusing on adult-stage Sevin applications and grub-stage soil treatments including milky spore disease as a long term remedy. Blight and Fusarium wilt on tomatoes prompt advice on rotation, resistant varieties, and careful transplant sourcing. Weather remains inconsistent with no broad pattern yet, though drought effects have been limited and crops like corn, soybeans, and wheat look reasonable this year.
