I have the bright green potatoe vine growing in some of my window boxes. It just started getting holes in the leaves. It looks like a little white flying bug. Any idea of how to get rid of them. The vines are next to huge hanging petunias. Thanks!

Spray it with diluted liquid soap first. This helps by itself.
The Seven Dust.
Throw onion skins in the garden because bugs hate them.

don't worry about the vine, the potatoes come off the roots.
