I agree with Todd, we don't spray our potatoes. I plant about 200 pounds of seed potatoes every year. So if we start to see potato beetles, we start our 1-2 week ritual. Every evening, my two oldest girls and I get ice cream buckets and walk the rows looking for beetles. They are really good pickers. If they find a big group they call me over. We do this for 1-2 weeks and we never see them again. While this isn't probably possible for most, we find it fun and relaxing. The girls really like it when we dump them in a metal bucket with some gas and light it on fire. Snap, crackle and pop!
