What's the best way to get rid of these nasty critters in the perennial
bed without resorting to pesticides. I hit them with some soapy water
yesterday. But our neighbor has an apiary and we get a lot of his bees
on our flowers so I would not want to do anything that would harm them.

OTOH, there's bug spit all over my favorite campanula which usually
stays full of flowers all summer and on a couple other things I'd really
not like to lose. sigh
