I am looking for a product I have purchased from PVFS in the past. It is a parasite that eats the plant/weed Puncture Vine. Can you tell me if you still carry this product?

Is there any known predator of the dreaded symphylans that can be purchased? I have a serious plague in my Oregon garden and with my strong organic practices over several years have created ideal conditions for the little buggers. Sources say one must abandon ship and start over elsewhere which buys you about a year before they catch on. (it’s true)
The local extension agency here says no one has called ever about symphylans. Do I have The Curse?
Do you have any info on this problem?
