I have issues with my carrots if I leave them in the ground over winter they are riddled with carrot fly. Which disproves they can’t scale a raised bed mine are 450mm high, and my carrots are flanked by onions. I thought this might help this year and I wondered if others used it?
I haven't used it but I thought it was only to control slugs? If carrot fly is the problem I wouldn't have thought it would work?

If I am wrong on this, I stand corrected. Huh

Nemaslug is probably the most well known but they also have products targeting vine weevils, chafer grubs, leatherjackets etc. Different nematodes attack different pests, for instance the scientific name of the slug nematode is Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita whereas the chafer grub nematode is Heterorhabditis bacteriophora. The Nemasys Fruit & Veg Protection is a mixture of types intended to prevent 'carrot root fly, cabbage root fly, leatherjackets, cutworms, onion fly, ants, sciarid fly, caterpillars, gooseberry sawfly, thrips, and codling moth'.

The Fruit & Veg Protection is quite good value, the slug and vine weevil products are almost double the price
