Default Black Fly On Broad Beans

In article , The

Hi

My broad beans have a very bad infestation of Black Fly.
I am finding it almost impossible to get any kind of pesticides from
Garden Centres etc.

Does any one have any idea what I can do please?


Reduce the problem next year by pinching out the young tips when the
plants have reached their desired heights - this will render the beans
less attractive. Planting either very early or very late is said to
help.
