Bob, this is compiled from queries received by the RHS from the public so
that it in no way represents what we see as the major pests - only pests
that we don't recognise! It is a 'classic' in the mis-interpretation of
statistics.
Yes I appreciate that only too well but it does tend to show unusual/new
stuff that is worsening. Stuff that we as gardeners need to look out for.
It's not many years ago I mentioned Leek Moth on here and got blank looks
and now it's spread almost everywhere.
