I spray them with Talstar-P and they turn Brownish Black a few days later and start falling off not long after that

Do you have to completely destroy the eggs or can you just scrape them onto the ground?

If egg masses are within reach of an extension cord I recommend a shop vac with crevice attachment. Absolutely critical that you soak the vac filter bag in soapy water for several days before disposing!

Thank you Dan

Scrape egg masses into a paper bag. Burn the bag.

The amount of woke protection undertaken is quite something.

Thanks for the vid.

What about a mask so you don't breathe the stuff that is flying in the air as scraping?
