  • Black fly

    can anyone help with a black fly problem please!

    I have been growining peppers in my conservatory for the last 2 years, however I keep getting blackfly which attacks the flowers, so stopping the peppers forming I do get some peppers from the plants but it's a shame I can't get rid of the blighters, I tried sprays from the garden centre but these don't seem to work, HELP!!

    how about growing nasturtiums close by ...the black fly will live on the nasties and stay clear of the peppers ....maybe...posiibly...worth a punt...................

      I would also suggest planting nasturtiums they're supposed to keep black fly off broad beans but this year will be the first year I try it.

        My solution is to grow a ladybird farm from a kit you can buy online. They eat aphids and are great organic alternative.

        Plus they're pretty!
        Serene she stand amid the flowers,
        And only count lifes sunny hours,
        For her dull days do not exist,
        Evermore the optimist

          My advice is to let them see some sun and fresh air, and give some bugs a good feast.
