    Don't spray your plants if you're attracting bees to your balcony ... your spray doesn't differentiate between bees and caterpillars ... you'll kill the bees! 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    I'm only spraying the moth-filled plants - so far, they haven't attacked the bee-attracting ones.

    Farmers have to take all sorts of precautions to avoid 'spray drift' ... airborne droplets contaminating other fields  of crops ... how close to each other are your plants?
