Has anyone found a way to get rid of these pests? They are taking over my butterfly and herb garden..reading your posts here I could have written each one down to the very last plant mentioned and I could have taken this picture of this bug on the leaf. I did take one and posted it on my blog trying to identify this bug. This is my first year for them. Actually I did notice some damage last year to my chocolate mint, but never saw the pest, this year they out in front red and bold as you please! 7 does not bother them in the least, any other suggestions??? Frantically trying to save my garden! Help!
