Birch Leaf Miners

[Northernfox]

These monsters are back. I saw them yesterday. I tried my spray from last year and I think it is inactive. My grandfather told me soap and water. although I dont like using harsh chemicals I might try Dr.Doom. they do a lot of damage very quickly.

Monsters make my weeping birch look sad.

what are your thoughts?

I don't know much about this monster, I do know that a spray bottle with 5-10 drops of dish soap and water is very effective on many pests in the garden. It is extremely effective on aphids I have found.

I got this stuff at the greenhouse. It made them blow up from the inside out lol

Just have to apply again in a day or so
