I have an abundance of Pill Bugs and they are devouring my Hostas. Anything organic I can use to control them? Even better... anything organic I can use that doesn't hurt beneficials? Even even better.... anything that won't hurt cats and dogs too? (a girl can dream ) |

I would suggest buying pecan shell mulch (very sharp) and put it all around your hostas. |

Are you fully organic? Is there anything you might have used in the past year or so that would chase away toads, lizards, geckos, and/or birds? I found that once I quit using all chemicals, my animal predators came back and took care of my insect infestations. I no longer have snails or slugs, either. |
