Your borers are probably in the ground. I can only imagine this net
getting in the way of your spraying. I am developing a more aggressive
spraying technique (wetting down main vines, underneath as well, plus
dusting with seven on main vines, secondary vines get wetting down only,
forget the mist type of spraying and forget spraying the leaves, think
of damage control instead of elimination, keep yourself on the main
vine, concentrate your best efforts there, you can lose a side vine or a
leaf and stem and still be in the game. just some thoughts)
