Hi đ
Those pests are back đ±âflea beetles.
Over the last few days, the nearby rapeseed field has been harvested. And now the flea beetles are looking for food đ
Weâre protecting our plants with an insect netting that has a mesh size of 0.8 x 0.8 mm (Photo 1/2).
As you can see in Photo 2, there are lots of flea beetles clinging to the outside of the netting đ
Iâm catching them with yellow sticky traps. This is very effectiveâPhoto 3đ
And a few pests always manage to get under the protective netting. Thatâs why there are bowls of water with dish soap placed underneath the nettingâthat way, theyâll drownâPhoto 4
And a few more things that arenât going perfectly in the garden.
Photo 5: The bell pepper just snapped off đâwe forgot to tie up this branch.
Photo 6+: My melons had had enoughâthe leaves were all wilted đ

Zum GlĂŒck wĂ€chst die Melonen bei unseren Garten Nachbarn richtig gut 7 Melonen an einer Pflanze tran vielleicht auch mehr. Sie ist veredelt deshalb sind da so viele dran. Die Melonen Foto sind 2 Wochen alt.
Bei mir sitzen die Erdflöhe auch am GWH. Sowas hatte ich noch nie. Ist wohl dieses Jahr eine richtige Plage.
Ich muss morgen auch mal SchĂ€lchen fĂŒr die Erdflohbiester aufstellen
