I had a good year with sweet corn, but do have some instance of something
eating the silk. What eats Cornsilk? There is also something eating the
husks off the corn, not the corn but the husk. It is so strange to find a
cob with the corn more or less intact but the husk completely gone. Any
ideas?
TIA, Ken.


Heh,

I'd be glad that was my ONLY pest! :-)

Probably some kind of caterpillar.

Try going out at dawn or dusk. That is usually
when those kinds of critters are most active.
