flea beetle on rocket
« on: July 17, 2010, 18:15:11 »
At least I assume it's flea beetle, every leaf full of tiny holes. (Can you be full of holes?)  I'm eating them just the same, but it's a bit off-putting for visitors. Has anyone got an organic solution please?

I'm bumping this in the hope of getting a reply - or does everyone else just put up with it?

the fle beetle tend to jump to the soil when disturbed so you could try some fly catcher pads next the the plant and give it a shake. or a light dusting with ant powder
