Pest update

Since Tuesday we have captured:

• 112 carrot flies on traps in the overwintered carrots (3 traps)
• 37 carrot flies on traps in newly-emerged carrots (3 traps)

In the 3 water traps:

• 41 male and 14 female cabbage root flies
• 168 bean seed flies
• 7 pollen beetles

We collected a total of 7 cabbage root fly eggs from around 15 cauliflower plants (planted 15 April).

We caught one diamond-back moth (2 pheromone traps)

We have pheromone traps out for European tarnished plant bug and common green capsid - and caught nothing.
