HI,
I understand your frustration. It takes time to learn all the ways to fight the insects. As you build up your soil with more micronutrients and humus, it seems like the plants are better able to resist the bugs. You should also let little patches around your garden get weedy. that...
I wonder if they were older than you think and they just flew. I can't imagine where they would have all just disappeared to. I guess something could have eaten them in one bite since they are so small but you would think that the nest would have been damaged. Sorry.
