Holy Moley

Just when I was beginning to think I might be done picking squash bugs off the squash, these little critters showed up on the eggplant.

Potato bugs!

So now. in addition to looking for these little copper eggs

(usually on the bottoms of the leaves, so not easily visible) and squishy them, and looking for baby and adult squash bugs and squishy them, I have to look for potato bugs on the eggplant vines and squish them.

Will it ever end?

And something has taken a few bites out of my perfect little aubergine eggplant.
