Wireworms
Babs in town

Our neighbours have 24 small plots with all organic soil and no pesticide permitted. We have healthy , very mixed crops every year but we're all coming to realise that wireworms have come to join in the feast. We're taking them out as we find the m and putting them outside our area so as to encourage our birds to help themselves, but they're not helping us fast enough ! Are there any bright ideas out there please ?

The other ideas are slightly less 'in your face' for my delicate sensibilities.We have actually had nematodes put down in another patch of garden,maybe they'll multiply so fast that we'll be able to repatriate some if they fancy a change.
The fencing idea is clever.Glad you explained that we won't be expected to spear the worms themselves.Bear Grylls knows nothing.
Thanks again,Tetley.Enjoy this glorious day!
