Episode 16: The community approach to managing Queensland Fruit Fly with Bronwyn Koll
Queensland Fruit Fly is a significant horticultural pest which creates problems for both home gardeners and fruit producers. The host range of this pest is huge as it attacks and damages a wide range of fruit and vegetables.
If you find Queensland Fruit Fly in your garden, you can find information on how to manage it on the Agriculture Victoria website. However, this pest doesn’t need to be reported.
Join the regional coordinator of the Yarra Valley Queensland Fruit Fly Group, Bronwyn Koll as she explains why this pest is everyone’s problem and why the community needs to get on board with how to manage it together, and the ways that we can all do that.
For more information visit the Urban Plant Health Network or Agriculture Victoria.
