Let's see...the answers are no, unh-unh and nope.

I recall spending a GOOD deal of time one year TRYING to figure out the Columbine leaf miners and eventually found some info that said that late May to early June was the time to catch the little buggers outside the leaf. The recommendation was to spray with dormant oil and be very sure you get the bottom of the leaf.

Did I ever DO it? Not so you'd notice. However I have darned near DEFOLIATED a few Columbines cutting the infested leaves off.........
