Pest update from Wellesbourne

We are now emptying the traps weekly rather than twice-weekly.

Between 9th and 16th October our 3 yellow water traps captured:

  • Cabbage root flies - 1 male and 1 female;
  • Bean seed flies - 175;
  • Pollen beetles - 2;
  • Flea beetles - 30;
  • Cabbage stem weevil - 0;
  • Cabbage seed weevil - 0;
  • Cabbage stem flea beetle - 6;

We caught 2 carrot flies on 3 sticky traps in our second sowing of carrots.

There were no diamond-back moths, 1 silver Y moth, no cabbage moths and 7 turnip moths in our pheromone traps (2 traps per pest).

There were 2 cabbage root fly eggs around our 15 brassica plants.
