    You might try a garden center that specializes in vegetable plants. I get mine at the local hardware store. Do you have a local feed and seed that farmers use? Ours is operated by Southern States and would have it as well. There are several brands besides the one that I pictured...many companies have a line of these products.

    Amazon and several mail order sources have it as well it if you want to order.

    I feel your pain...been there. You can search and pick them off...they won;t bite, and move very slow.
