g'day griffi,

we use chilly spray for the veges when it involves the
grubs/caterpillars, we sue a strong mixed instant coffee spray for the
slugs n snails and also beer traps for this purpose as well.

as for the fruit trees if the bugs are fruit flies then you need to
buy a fruit fly wick to control the males and if you check my remedies
page i have recipes there for making traps for the female fly. in some
cases the only organic control for some bugs is to pick them off the
fruit trees or net the tree with mossy net this needs 2 be done after
pollination has taken place.

hope some of this helps
