When you apply fungicides be aware of these guys. unfortunately a lot of fungi and pesticides we use are of risk to honey and bumble bees. We kill our pumpkin enemy's but in the process some of the good guys to. Getting older and hopefully a little bit smarter, we try to minimize the use of heavy commercial pesticides and fungicides. And in our heat, and humidity I don't think there are many places that have a a higher disease and bug pressure then we have. We have been able to significantly reduce the amount of harmful chemicals we spray into the environment, and added more biologicals to our program. So if you can, work smarter and not harder, not dumber and more, but smarter and less!!!
