Re: Leaf miners

sunlight dish detergent has proved to be the best. Works on chinch bugs and

caterpillars as well. Also great for getting rid of bugs in my house
plants. 
When using make sure it foams up on the plant, leaves and ground around
the 
plant itself. If using it make sure to use light spray of just water after

to wash it off leaves within half an hour after use or earlier on hot
sunny 
day as it tend to leave a film on the leaves and may dry them out and they

will die and fall off.

When spraying chinch bugs have a second person and squirt the sunlight
over 
the ground (or have it premixed) and then hose the area to make it foam up

and leave it. It suffocates them and the grass will return green within a 
few days to a week.
