    Not sure about it being banned but it's definitely frowned upon and I chose not to use.

    Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

    Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

      Whoops, I had avoided spaying or dusting with anything till catapillas started to eat my brocoli. Said organic on the tub.

        Organic means 'not synthetic'

          Hi
          Might be worth planting a lot of nasturtiums around the plot? Although I planted a few three years ago and now don't have to bother, they regrow every year. I've found that although some butterflies do get through the netting on my brassicas, they mostly lay on the nasturtiums and the caterpillars eat that instead.
          I did try giving some caterpillars to the hens but they turned up their beaks so as I don't want to commit mass murder have left the caterpillars to it on the nasturtiums.

            I've got heaps of nasturtiums on my plot. They attracted the black fly and a very few caterpillars. Didn't make much overall difference though.
