Thanks to those who replied. It was blackfly - there was a small crowd
of them in a flower cluster at the top of one of the plants. Squished
now. I shall keep an eye open for further attacks.


They always go for broad beans, I've had to deal with them every time I
grew them. I think I used a dilute washing up liquid spray.
