Some rhizomes are here again this year that came from an iris borer
infested area.

Is there something they can soak in that will make sure borer eggs
aren't planted along with the rhizome?  Will Clorox soak work?

I don't want to accidentally start a breeding program here for 'vale'
tolerant iris-borers! <g>
