Hi,

I have tons of Box Elder Bugs in and around my garden. I've been putting DE on them, but it doesn't seem to phase them and now I've got little baby bugs everywhere. Will they harm my plants and veggies? If so, how can I get rid of them?

Thanks!

Don't know if you've tried a Yahoo or Google search but you'll get tons of info like this:

Thanks for the link! Sounds like they won't harm my garden. Its just annoying to see so many bugs. Fortunately I have not had any issues with them getting in the house.
