The turnips I sowed this spring were attacked by flea beetles. The roots were okay, but the greens had so many holes that we could not use them.
I left several turnips in the ground and let the beetles feast on them to their hearts content. After awhile they disappeared - I suspect either the birds ate them, or some "good bugs" came along and ate them.
Over the years I have learned that if I leave nature to take care of things, I manage to get enough to eat despite the "bad bugs."
