Has anyone else experienced an infestation of elm leaf beetles this year?
We have new cotto floor tiles that have already been treated with a matt finish impregnating product but are still proving to stain easily.
Can anyone advise on a herbicide to spray under dormant vines available on the market in Italy? Haven't been able to locate any Roundup.
Can anyone provide me with more information on the ubiquitous 'aqua verde'? Giovanni who looks after our vines insists they need to be sprayed with this at least twice a season.
Can anyone provide a rough cost per metre for basic fencing (2 metre chain link with wooden posts)?
Does anyone have any experience with CO2 mosquito catchers available on the market in Italy?

That's very interesting. I assumed as it has a tiled roof that made it a permanent structure. Will see what can be done. Thanks for the response.
Alan/Gala - appreciate the response on this. Will check the link out

thanks for this. The traditional wax method does seem like a rather drawn out process compared with painting on a couple of coats of resin and I'm not sure it will actually look any different with wax. I have also heard that wax surfaces are still prone to marking/staining.
Appreciate the quick response. Will give it a go
Thanks Yes I think I did see this in one ferementa (white bottle, green writing?) but they seemed to indicate it would kill just about everything. Do you have experience of using this under vines?
Interesting! Thanks for the response on this Gala Might have a go at making my own mix next season A
That's great - many thanks for the response on this
Thanks No wall involved just straight fence with wooden posts A
