You sound like an extreme case. If , you don't have any flowers yet then put on the SEVIN or the MALATHION good and heavy. My guess is that you have slugs or bean beetles. If your plants have no leaves left you may not get any produce off them this yea rand so concentrate on cutting down on the insect population and try again next year! You can also put down a GRUB killer in the lawn and garden. Garden only if there is no fruit! You don't want poison fruit and veggies! I think I would concentrate on cleaning out the mess this year with a great garden next year in mind!!! Hi Yendy, I never recommend pesticide on food crops except in extreme cases!

Go out with a flashlight and see what you find, then tailor the treatment for the specific insect. Most insects do their work at night.
