Queensland fruit fly workshop

Queensland Fruit Fly (QFF) is a serious pest that lays its eggs in fruit and fruiting vegetables – everything from lemons to tomatoes – causing them to rot from the inside. Unfortunately, QFF is now found in Melbourne. This workshop will teach you: how to identify it; how to deter or manage it in your garden; and how to dispose of it, if you do find it in your fruit or vegetables. Plus they will show you how to make a cheap and effective trap out of materials that are easy to come by.

Presenter: Angelo Eliades. Organised by DIVRS in partnership with the East Preston Community Centre.
