sooby said:Yes they are recorded from Ohio. I believe they will overwinter there, it's not exclusive to southern areas. A lot of people just remove and destroy the mined leaves, it depends on your level of tolerance. Further info from the AHS here:

Thank you for replying, it's appreciated. I read that link, but while it said that contact insecticides wouldn't work, it didn't mention systemics.

I'm about to cut back my plants and use a soap wash for aphids, do you think that would make any difference at all?
I'm also thinking, based on those photos above, that I need more spiders in my gardens. Smiling
