I gave the plants a shot of Boita Max and Extreme Blend last evening. While applying it I saw some adult vine borers flying around so I decided to apply some dust. My father in law gave me an old pump duster. It looked a little rusty so I added a little dust and gave it a couple pumps. It puffed out dust nicely, so I added a bunch of Sevin and Eight mixed together. I went to the first pumpkin and started pumping. Puff, puff, POOOFFFF!!! The bottom of the duster blew open, covering me with the dust. Tonight I will use a different strategy and apply some bifenthrin spray. I don't want to trust just the Merit to work, and I want to nuke those bugs before they can screw things up for me.
