Help please. I have just planted some leeks and as I know the leek moth lays its eggs in March and April (first cycle), when should I give them a spray with a rhodedendrum-based insecticide, whose name escapes me. And how many times. In autum I think I spray them twice/three times!

Thanks for your reply.
Thanks for your reply. I found the box: Bio-Pyretrex.
I tried the netting trick but despite me being extremely careful they vermin still managed to get in and ravage the crop. I was going to try some of those traps that imitate the odour of the female moth to attract the males but the fellow in the gardning shop recommended Bio-Pyretrex and this worked a treat. I think I applied it every second week in September and October but I am not sure I applied it in April (which was when I planted some last year).. I wanted to know when I should start spraying after planting leeks in March and how often.
By the way, is there any way of being notified by e-mail when someone replies to my post?
