Re: Big bug eating the roots
Banana corm weevils were not a problem in Santa Barbara. Then I moved to Hawaii. They attacked several plants. I dipped the plants in a bleach solution that I thought for sure would kill them. The plants made it back after looking like death. My plants were potted and could be treated. I now spray a solution of water and Dr. Bronner's peppermint soap weekly on all of my plants. I have caught the little bastards and sprayed them and the soap kills them. It also kills white flies and other pests. It's safe and organic.
