Hello!
I have a problem with Mealy bug on my strawberries how do I get rid
of them? Also white fly they are back again this year on tomatoes, beans and
mint, I have tried the yellow board but I guess that there were too many for
that to be a success, also I have sprayed with Neemtech.Thanks Margaret.

Try some white oil, made up to the instructions on the tin-add some
detergent, just a few drops as it makes the oil stick to the bugs and leaves
better. You may have to spray every few days until the infestation is gone.

Thank I'll give white oil ago tomorrow. Margaret.
