I skipped going to the community garden ONE DAY (because I didn't want to look like I was obsessed with it), and of course, when I go today my eggplant is covered in flea beetles, and full of holes! My poor eggplant 950477
I sprayed neem oil on them, but I read rotenone is better. Will look for it tomorrow. Any other suggestions? I saw some of them were on my peppers and on one of my tomatoes.

Light-weight row cover keeps off flea beetles. It worked for me last year.

Well, it's just one square on my plot at the community garden so I can't keep an eye on it in case it moves too much. It's also getting quite warm here in the afternoons. Would it cook the plant?
