Title: strawberry tortrix caterpillars. Glue with caterpillars
Post by: strawberry1 on July 21, 2014, 08:39:20
I have had a very poor crop this year, all strawberries grown in containers at home. First vine weavil, treated with nematodes and then good healthy plants but now webs holding leaves together and also holding  petals together with like a sticky glue, when pulled apart there is a small green caterpillar. I am sure it is tortrix moth. Too many to deal with I think. I have used py spray this morning but it isn`t systemic. Anyone else?
