I grow a lot of snap beans. That seems to be where the white flies
breed and train to attack peppers and such. I think they must raise
three generations a day. Someone posted about using yellow traps to
monitor whitefly populations. Not me, boy. I stir the bean plants
up and get those whiteflies airborne. We're not monitoring here,
this is war...
