Black fly on Nasturtium
 

Hi there,

Every year I grow climbing Nasturtiums (I love 'em) and every year
they get covered in black fly.

Is there an organic way to prevent these little critters?

Cheers

I rub them off with my fingers but to be honest, I usually leave a few
nasturtiums around so that the blackfly go on that first rather than the
beans. Soapy water removes them so I am told

Yeah, they seem to be a blackfly magnet

I have no success with soapy water. I get more success with blasting them
off with the fine spray, whether it contains soap/detergent or not!
