Beg to differ with you on that one. We got 'em inside the house by the tens of thousands. At this point, there's an hour every couple days with the shop vac sucking up the filthy little bastages.

Lost over 300 pounds of tomatoes, all our corn, most of our okra, peppers, and tomatillos. Apparently, they don't care for strawberries. Go figure.

Found out a couple weeks ago they're 'highly attracted to yellow' - as some will recall, our house got painted a bright, screaming yellow recently. Lovely.
