Bugs on my bean sproots

Jun 05, 2006 0 Replies

Some new beans sprooted, and something was chewing on the leaves. I'm finding little maggot like creatures chewing on the bean sproots. On a couple they are turning the leaves to lace. One had it's first true leaves completely consumed. Others I have managed to save by picking them off.



Any ideas as to what these are and some sort of prevention? I have peas started well and some other seedlings sprooting, but they seem to like the beans first.
