I've only found a few pods effected this year,
and none
completely.
Pretty much the same as my experience. No pod was a total
loss, (I think). I think the mesh might need to go over the bloom
before a pods develops, though. My instincts based on my
observations led me to believe the eggs were there before I daubed the
pollen. Some pods had worms without any sign of entry or exit on them,
leading me to think the pod formed around eggs that were already in
place. Good thing the worms are bigger or there wouldn't have been any
seeds to salvage.
