Title: blackfly
Post by: brianc on May 23, 2014, 15:09

Hi all.
       I have a blackfly problem with my broad beans .
       My main hobby is showing fuchsias, to kill grean fly I use soapy water.
       Would it work on blackfly? as I do not want to use chemicals.
                               Thankyou.

Yes you can use fairy liquid type detergent in water to spray ;)

Also on BBs most of the blackfly are usually on the tops - you can just pinch the tops off.
