EnigmaticOne Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Right well just been in to peep at the ladies and found some greenfly on one of the plants. Now I have already bought some of the large yellow sticky greenhouse traps (probably would have helped if I had put them up ) so apart from using those and manually squishing them, any advice? The plants are still vegging at this stage. EO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnigmaticOne Posted May 17, 2005 Author Share Posted May 17, 2005 Cheers MJ, I knew about ladybirds being good for aphids such as greenfly. Just need to go grab a couple. I am not keen on handling ladybirds since we had a killer invasion of them in this area one year. It was like something out of an Alfred Hitchcock movie, they were biting peeps all over the place :!: Bloody cannibals they are :bush: EO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
