We grow BB's for a We-pick / U-pick operation. This year we had a huge crop, and the beetles have returned after being gone for several years. We learned to never put up the yellow traps, it just lures the beetles in from the surrounding county. Plus, there is noting in the existence of the universe more disgusting than a bag of the dead beetles. Best bet is spray Malathion [ 1 day to re-entry ] or spray Sevin [ 7 day to re-entry.] Knocks them right down. Wear face respirator rated for pesticides, costs only $35 or so at your farm-n-home store. Spray in the hot afternoon, when they are concentrating in groups on the tops of the plants. My experience is you only have to spray the tops of the plants, where they are. You'll get 95% that way. You might have to come back in a week and get the survivors, as there will be a few. WAIT the correct number of days before re-entry or consuming the berries.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
