Good Picture. I've seen the same SOB hanging around my plants lately. I sprayed with isotox and hope I got him.

They are fairly easy to hit with a fly swatter when its landed on a leaf like that.If in flight , forget it , if they know they are being attacked they will fly about 50 feet in a second. Been there , done that.
