I remember somebody telling me, or writing, that he went out in his bulb garden when they were emerging and whacked them with a tennis racquet. And I think Steve Vinisky, a daffodil breeder, mentioned sending his children out with butterfly nets. I had some luck last year using one of those long-distance wasp sprays (not organic!) and nailing them on the wing. They're easy to identify when flying because of the peculiar sound they make, like giant mosquitoes. I got a couple this spring just by throwing plastic pots at them. Very haphazard methods, all of these...I think a spray at the base of the foliage, where they lay their eggs, is the best idea and will try it next year. Jane McGary Northwestern Oregon, USA
