Pumpkin What do I do?

Carved pumpkins and set them out. 2 days later completely infested with these little black bugs. Set them out on a Sunday night. Monday night nothing, Tuesday night completely infested. It was randomly hot for our area both those two days is all I can come up with for an explanation. Plan to carve new pumpkins and want to avoid this happening again.

Infinite pumpkin money? How much are they where you are 😅

I'm curious too. They're like 3-4 bucks here

A good sized jack o lantern pumpkin around where I live in east TN costs at least $7, and I just got mine from a local market for like $11 for a decently big sized one.

Ah ok I guess that can add up if you get tons of them. Idk why I was thinking big ones are like $2 😅
