Anyone have any suggestions for terminating them this late in the game? I have planted my cucumbers twice!!! Thanks for any help you can give! (I didn't have them last year . . . so I was unprepared this year!)

Hot pepper Spray Recipe
Here is a recipe that I have found useful and was republished in Organic Gardening Magazine:
Hot pepper Spray Recipe:
1/2 cup hot peppers I use Habannero they are extra hot and I have learned the hard way to wear gloves.
2 cups water
Pure peppers and water in a blender.
Strain the liquid through a cheese cloth.
Apply every 5 to 7 days until the pest are gone.
Also take a look at the recipe gave me pleclare caliente pest control or something close to that name, it works well

Mix trigger's recipe with some organic insecticidal soap. Something like "Safers". It will make the hot pepper spray stick to the plants and or beetles you spray. As an alternative a little lite oil, ex: mineral oil, will also make the spray stick.

Also add some alcohol, grain alcohol, not the good stuff for drinking, to triggers hot pepper spray. The alcohol will act as a carrier to help penetrate the active ingredients into the pest. Beetles are a little more difficult because they have an exoskeleton as opposed to the soft bodied pests.

Doesn't have to be grain alcohol. It can be rubbing alcohol too. Just don't use your best sipping whiskey unless you want the pests to be happy when they go.
