Can anyone tell me what these are? Are they beneficial or pest? And how do I rid myself of them?
I hope I am doing the pictures correctly. If not can someone hold my hand for a moment and point me in the right direction. :( |

You'll get more responses if you post this in the "pests" forum. I don't know what those critters are called, but I think they're what stripped my tomato plants of leaves. I sprayed with a mix of compost tea (from the store, not homemade), orange oil, and fresh garlic (I mashed the garlic and let it sit in water overnight, and then added the compost tea & orange oil). Seemed to get rid of them pretty quickly.

I did move it and Howard responded they were Leaf-footed bugs.
Thanks |
