Radish problems

Dover, PA(Zone 6b)

Has anyone ever used DE in their radish beds to reduce pest damage, it looks like some kind of little worm, borer, or larva chewed them. I know it's not good for earthworms but it's also bad for grubs ,slugs, and other crawling things.
Maybe some one knows of so kind of drench thats safe on veggies? Ric

Hey, sorry you've had no response. This forum must be pretty quiet.
My radishes are like heck also. I couldn't really find a bad guy but planted them so thick, with lettuce too, it was hard to get in and examine so I didn't really.
DE on the surface couldn't possibly kill all the worms in your yard, I would not worry about using it in limited areas.
