Kudzu Bug Solution!

With kudzu bugs damaging soy bean crops, a potential solution has been found.  However, in states that do not produce soy beans, the kudzu bug cuts back up to 30 percent of kudzu’s biomass in a season.  Quite a quandry.

“Scientists have recently discovered a wasp in Japan that feeds on the eggs of Kudzu bugs.  They’re hoping to release those wasps here to end the Kudzu Bug life cycle.”
