Thanks for replying Flapdoddle,
However, the photo in the link you provided, (thanks), doesn't look like my cocoons/eggs.
Sorry the image isn't better, I'll send one with a different setting, I think. It looks a little sharper
to me.
The cocoons on my Bell Pepper's stem WERE fuzzy, I haven't seen any yesterday or today, yet.
Mine are in almost neat "rows", not in a net bag like thing. These cocoons follow the creases in
the stem.
Since I killed them, I sure hope they're not a beneficial wasp. Darn!!! Just don't know what to do
if I see them again.
Thanks

They're in 3 & 5 gallon pots now...
