Japanese attack

Almost 60 years later, it's happening again. The Japanese are attacking by air! They come swooping down attacking the green beans, the okra, the corn. They are eating the leaves off the grapes. They even eat those stinkin' marigolds. My bug dust gun isn't very effective because the beetles have gotten immune to the dust. When Japanese beetles first attacked my garden many years ago, I bought 2% sevin dust. It worked for a while, but then I had to go to 5% and then 7%. Now I'm using 10% sevin and I don't think it will work. I blasted them late this afternoon. I'll go over to the garden tomorrow as soon as it's light and see if it did any good.
