Fleece is easily damagaed and doesn't last as long.<br /> I have written about our methods on my website <a href="http://glallotments.co.uk/carrotfly.html" rel="nofollow">this page</a> if you want to know more about what we do.Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082433578355725102.post-86849641660269305912012-04-15T15:16:20.467+01:002012-04-15T15:16:20.467+01:00Hi Sue

In your experience does that work, if not I will have to cover them up.Lorraine Pullenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10471647053257519352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082433578355725102.post-41043991292643723592012-04-15T10:46:35.318+01:002012-04-15T10:46:35.318+01:00Will you cover the carrots to keep the carrot fly ...Will you cover the carrots to keep the carrot fly away?Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.com
