I am having issues with flea beetles.They seem to be running rampant this year. Type in flea beetles and you will see that farmers are fighting them everywhere. You can smash them easily. They do not like peppermint oil /soap spray. Seems the only way I can keep them off my plants

Neem oil spray mix 2 tablespoons of neem oil ,1 tablespoon of a biodegradeable dish to 1 gal of water sprayer (test spray ) . Wait until honey bees are down for the night. Spray top and underside I got the recipe from the Rustic Garden on YouTube. I will smother soft body insects and kill chewing bugs. I relocated any caterpillars.

Peppermint oil will mask the plants damaged by fungus or insects. Insects will attack damaged plants
