I use Pyola oil from Garden's Alive, it is organic and they have a lot of
things to offer on their website. I think it is gardensalive.com. You have
to keep up with it every 5-7 days or it will not work. I think you can use a
couple of other products they offer also. I have horrible problems with them
and all the beetels yoiu can think of, I am trying to not use chemicals to
fight this. Another thing you can try is planting radishes among them. I
have read that here from someone. You plant 3-4 radishes per plant and let
them grow and bolt. I just cant' remember who wrote it. I am going to try
it for sure this year. I am also waiting on a soil test to come back, once
my soil is right, I should not have this problem anymore.

Good luck! You and I both need it!
