Lemon Tree Flies
Hi
I have a lemon tree that doesn't seem to produce fruit. It seems to have very small lemons on it but then drops them as they are growing. The tree also has a large amount of small, silver flies in the soil. Could this be anything to do with the tree not producing fruit? Please help Thanks |

You could always use a systemic insecticide watered in. I have a feeling you get them when the soil is too damp. No doubt someome with more knowledge will corrcet me if I am wrong. |
