Floating row cover over eggplant to keep flea beetles from devastaing it has worked fine for me, but I like the idea of combining that with mulch. Maybe that will continue to make a difference when I take the row cover off. Those beetles seem to hop in from everywhere, though.

Hi!
It's my understanding that the flea beetles emerge from the ground and
jump upward to feed on our plants...........i do not think row cover is
an answer for that ( wasn't for me!). The times when my eggplants in the
ground did best was when the bed's soil was covered with black plastic
mulch.
My arugula fared better when i had a thick newsprint and hay mulch around
the plants.
Good Luck!
