In some parts of the country, this little pest is a 
constant visitor in gardens. It is about 4 inch 
long and is lemon or copper color with black 
spots. The larvae are yellow with black spines. 
Treatment should begin when the larvae appear 
on the under part of the leaves. 3-WA-KIL Dust 
_ is an excellent destroyer. Plow the vines under 
after harvest to reduce infestation.
