I don't use pesticides, so I'm looking for an appropriate solution. I sprayed them with a 10% solution of household ammonia (nitrogen) tonight. Will check on progress tomorrow. BTW, it kills army worms (aka tent caterpillars), earwigs, slugs (and eggs), lily beetles (and eggs). So what is the name of this critter and does anyone know its life cycle? Please & Thank you.
