Does anyone know of any natural predators against the Ashgray Blister Beetle pest? I\'ve been picking them off and killing them by hand.

Voraciously devours plants it chooses. Starting out decimating pigweed (i garden organic) so I left them for them. Worked for awhile. They moved on to radishes next. Didn't really care there as I just plant them mostly for the fun of em always growing. Looks like I better get a good look at my tomatoes tomorrow. Hoped they'd stay on the radishes and leave my kale alone...so far so good. Guess I'll try a garlic spray to start. Never saw them before this year. Clearly they're massively invasive. Don't have time to hand pick bugs off a 50' x 100' garden I can barely keep up with as is. Good luck...anybody sees them, be merciless.

Last year they decimated my false indigo. Not even June and they are already here. We put diatomaceous earth on the plants, but it doesn't seem to help. We'll be hand picking. Ick! Please add Oacoma, SD to locations they can be found.
