East Central Mo. | I'm east central Mo., about 80 miles north of St. Louis and I'm starting to see several too. Last year I had to spray all of my beans for them, but it was much later than this. They ate the silk off the outside corn rows on every field, but it had already pollinated by then. In the beans, it appeared they were moving east to west. I'd find them on the east side of fields first and wished afterwards I'd sprayed a couple of passes on each field, on that side. I don't know what the threshold is, but if I'd known they were going to last that long, I'd have sprayed sooner. It was the first time I'd ever seen them things and was hoping it was my last. I'm very dry too and beans aren't growing very fast. | |
