 Flea Beetle Just got back from my Hols. Rocket had bolted and flea beetles were feasting so I composted the lot. Question is.... Will the beetles move on now the rocket has gone ? How soon till I can sow again and cover with fleece ?      |

| Flea beetles can be kept down by keeping the crop moist. The beetle prefers conditions hot & dry.

| I read somewhere that flea beetle numbers should be dwindling around mid July. I love rocket but I always get plagued by them, but have just bought some seeds to sow in the next few weeks. I would try again soon! |
