For me, Surround helps greatly with striped cucumber beetles, if applied in a timely fashion.  To some extent, it seems to help with flea beetles, too.  Surround is the only name I know of.  As I recall, I use about 1 1/2 to 2 cups/gallon of water, applied with a diaphragm pump sprayer.

Has anyone had success using kaolin clay to protect against insects? Surround is the only product name i know of. Are there others? Can the clay itself be used or made into an effective remedy?
Thanks
