Re: Runner Beans
I used dilute washing up liquid last year but to very little avail and I lost the whole crop it was that bad, but this year I bought some Pravado bug spray that is safe to use on edible crops, although I haven't needed to use it yet because I am inspecting the canes every day and taking off any infected side shoots. The prevalence of the black fly seems quite low this year, although they did damage to a blackcurrant bush earlier on due to my negligence in not checking for the little blighters.Re: Runner Beans
Thanks everyone, it seems washing up liquid is the answer then - plus daily vigilance and not letting the little blighters get too bad in the first place.Re: Runner Beans
