What's eating my strawberries
« on: June 04, 2010, 06:22 »
I netted my strawberries as soon as they started to red. I had a look yesterday and the few red ones have round holes going right into the fruit. They are sitting on a good mulch of straw. What else will eat strawberries other then birds?
There is no better show of antisipation than a man sowing seeds in a field.

Yes definitely slugs and snails they love them as much as we do!
