Home & Garden - 20 June 2006

I have moved the 3 weights, altered the eyball direction in the return flow, speeded up and slowed down the suction rate. NOTHING works, and the company I bought it from, QikDip in the UK won't take the product back, which I find incredible, as I simply cannot make the device work. It just floats around the shallow end in the same path all the time, not cleaning up the muck at the bottom of the deep end. Driving me crazy ! HELP.

I had it recently serviced and it worked like a charm for a couple of months.

How to get rid of tomato worms?

I have these 1-2 inch long, light green worms that blend in perfectly with my tomato plant leaves, and they are destroying my plants, chewing them to shreds. The few I've caught have tiny "hooks" on their end that makes me think they're baby tomato worms. Anyone know of an "organic" way to get rid of them? They're nearly impossible to see, and I don't want to start spraying my plants with chemicals or pesticides? Any ideas, or know of any critters that will eat them?
