Pest update from Wellesbourne
Yesterday we found:
- 0 male and 7 female cabbage root flies (3 water traps)
- 38 bean seed flies (3 traps)
- 4 carrot flies (3 traps)
- 3 cabbage root fly eggs (15 cauliflower plants)
- 10 brassica flea beetles (3 traps)

Cabbage whitefly is abundant on our plots of kale. There is a small infestation of currant-lettuce aphid on our trial plots. Cabbage aphid numbers are building up in some of our brassica plots.
