Wow, never heard of Blister Beetles till now. Nasty little guys. I though potato beetles were bad. The Wiki posting regarding them says they mainly feed on other insects mainly bees (again, glad I have not met them). It also says that when they feed on plants they prefer "flowers and leaves of plants of such diverse families like Amaranthaceae, Asteraceae, Fabaceae, and Solanaceae". Which explains the potato defoliation. Maybe you could do a trap crop and them plow under.
