  • I forgot to put up my Agralan Codling Moth trap this year and surprise, surprise my apples were mainly free of maggots. I feed the blue tits and other birds throughout the year with sunflower kernels which they carry up into the apple tree above to feast on this delicacy and can only assume that they dealt with the little bug...s for me! I will put up the trap next year as insurance.
  • How can I organically control Scale insect on my 8ft tall Contorted Hazel? All the controls appear to be for greenhouse use. Please help! Thanks
  • how do you prune cob nut trees?
  • I suffer from vine weevil in my garden is there any natural way to get rid of this pest, at the moment i use provado treatment but this year has been the worst ever, i have killed numerous adult vine weevils manually is there a easy organic solution?
  • Have found holes in the buds of one clump of irises anybody had a similar experience and any advice out there?
  • I have noticed that my lovely plum tree has a greenfly infestation. I want to treat it but need to use something that will not effect the eating quality of this years crop. Any suggestions most welcome.
  • Termites are considered as traitor insects. Before you knew your place is in danger, it is too late until you see the damaged woods that are the main foundations of your home. It is strongly recommended for our home to have a regular termite inspection in Toronto for our own safety.

  • sociable interruption for buddy. yearning to get more from your side :)
  • I have 4 large Maples in my garden. This year the leaves have not come out properly. Most are covered in what looks like small red,yellow and green egg shapes. The leaves are shrivelling. It appesrs that the bug are sucking the moisture from the leaves.
  • I'm plagued with an infestation of tiny black flies in the peat free compost I am currently using to grow tomatoes in. The flies are not affecting the tomato plants but are multiplying at a rate of knots! The tops of the plant pots are covered in fly eggs and there are swarms of these tiny flies. I'd like advice about how to safely get rid of them please. I am growing the tomatoes indoors in an upstairs bay window and would not want to use anything which might contaminate the tomatoes particularly as my daughter is pregnant.
