Q. For the second year in a
row, my grape plants were decimated, but starting right before ripening, and
continuing throughout the summer. I sprayed a soap spray on them, but to
no avail. I thought the problem was a slow flying black fly, but then I
noticed a blue and yellow caterpillar type bug on one of the leaves. What
can I use to prevent this from happening again, and will they threaten my peach
trees (not so far) Attached are a couple of photos. The match book
is for size comparison.
