I'm in complete agreement with Stan.  I have asked a number of growers and
pest control advisors for actual data.  Most answers are speculative.
Everything seems impossible until you start doing it otherwise.

At the rate that neonics are being used, soon all pests will have developed
resistance, and growers will be forced to find other methods to control
them.  Sustainable methods would be preferable to waiting for each new
generation of insecticide.
