Garden writer Susan Mulvihill talks about bugs! This is the first of 3 videos on some of the most damaging vegetable garden insect pests. But the good news is there are very easy organic methods to control them or keep them away from your crops. Today's bugs are aphids, cabbage worms, and leafminers. You'll see helpful photos of what the insects look like and the type of damage they cause and the simple way to exclude them from their favorite crops.
