Lumpyjumper, you might not be able to get Derris as it's being withdrawn from sale, you might be able to get an organic spray somewhere but I'm afraid you might end up having to pick them all off by hand again!
Picked a few larvae off my gooseberry plant the other day as I noticed a few leaves looking a bit nibbled but you have to be vigilant or they'll take over the whole bush in no time.
