Grow Your Own / Theory on Flea Beetles
« Last post by InWarwickshire on Today at 13:42 »I`ve done a lot of searches but cannot find how the FB finds its food source.
FB`s can fly,jump and walk.
If we assume the search by scent then I`m wondering whether my theory may work.
A couple years ago my plot neighbour ask me If I could smell that `foul smell`. It was coming from my Comfrey `juice`. This morning I was decanting a batch and some got on my hands. After washing them later I needed to wash a couple more times
So, could a comfrey dousing deter the said FB,methinks?
Not sure whether to douse the plant leaves or carefully dribble next to.
