Bean Seed Fly Reporting
Friday, May 24, 2019
In the attached document is some background to the Bean Seed Fly and information on how to get on board with a project that PGRO are part of to collect data on the distribution of the bean seed fly in the UK. They direct you to their app to report any incidence of the pest, however I have downloaded the app just to be nosey and there is some handy info and tools on there regardless of the crop you are growing or the presence of any pests so it may be worth having a look at (it is free so there’s no harm in giving it a try!).
It would be good to report any bean seed fly incidence to the PGRO app because it will assist in developing methods to prevent or manage the pest in the future as there is currently no approved chemistry to control the bean seed fly.
