Bromophos is no longer available, so I am told, what do others do to
control it?


Build a box around the bed at least 18inches high with no gaps. Won't ensure
no damage but will limit it. You could also cover the box with Enviromesh so
it's sealed to the little blighters.

The row is 15 metres long Bob and we have 3 rows in different
places!!! Excellent advice but I think our veggie garden is too big
to box off the carrot bit.
