Hi,

Having grown runner beans reasonably successfull over the last few
years this year due to the wet weather ours are decimated.

They are in a border next to a path, any suggestions please


I go out with a torch on warm humid nights like tonight and catch them.
You can kill them by dropping them into some salt water in a jamjar, or
in more imaginative ways.
Their population falls very quickly if you start doing it now - don't
wait for them to breed.
