g'day griffi,
we use chilly spray for the veges when it involves the grubs/caterpillars, we sue a strong mixed instant coffee spray for the slugs n snails and also beer traps for this purpose as well. as for the fruit trees if the bugs are fruit flies then you need to buy a fruit fly wick to control the males and if you check my remedies page i have recipes there for making traps for the female fly. in some cases the only organic control for some bugs is to pick them off the fruit trees or net the tree with mossy net this needs 2 be done after pollination has taken place. hope some of this helps len snipped -- happy gardening 'it works for me it could work for you,' "in the end ya' gotta do what ya' gotta do" but consider others and the environment http://members.optusnet.com.au/~gardenlen1/ |
