The message
from "nambucca" contains these words:
Water the entire allotment every 10 days with a solution of Armillotox
that will kill any unripened vine weevil eggs and a lot of other nasties too
The problem with chemicals is that they kill indescriminately.
Armillotox is a great garden soil steriliser but it does exactly that -
kills everything. Remember, soil sterilizers are poisons and can harm
humans and animals as well as soil pests. IMO sterilizers should only
be used as a last resort. Gardening is a hobby and there can be much
satisfaction gained from picking out the pests oneself and feeding the
birds with them :-)
