Has anyone heard about this new bug the Allium leaf miner? Supposed to attack and destroy alliums unless grown under cover.!
Does anyone have info or pics on it?

Hi suggest you go to the The Royal Horticultural Society - Research: RHS Science Exchange this will give you all the info you are looking for on this little critter.

It's only affecting certain parts of the country at the moment, I believe. Whereabouts are you PoshCloche? It's not on your profile... You may not need to worry about it yet

LOL..I will be needing this myself soon, being in the East Midlands I'm sure it will be here pronto.

Gonna take some sowing lessons from Janeyo and make some covers for all my beds at this rate....being that Onions take 1/3 of my plot at any one time.
