pest update from Wellesbourne

Between Friday (22nd) and Tuesday (26th) we found:

  • 49 carrot flies on traps in this year's carrots (3 traps)
  • Total of 16 cabbage root fly eggs from around 15 cauliflower plants.
  • There were 5 turnip moths, no diamond-back moths and no silver Y moths (2 traps per species). This looks as if it may be the start of the second generation of turnip moths - which generally does not cause problems.

The 3 yellow water traps caught:

  • 94 male and 35 female cabbage root flies
  • 55 bean seed flies
  • 11 flea beetles
  • 1 small white butterfly
