Skrumpy Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Hi There,Just had to pull up and destroy 40 odd cabbage and cauliflower plants infected with the dreaded Cabbage Root Fly - does anybody know of an organic solution to prevent further attacks? I'm not keen on pesticides but will use them if all else fails.Thanks,Skrumpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
