[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 6108804, member: 2119"] I have cut back greatly on insectides. The cereals haven't had anything after Autumn for a few years now and this year none at all, (drilled in January though). The OSR likewise had very little insecticide. But rarely see a bug in a trailer load of grain. That's definitely a big change here. Maybe it's nothing to do with pesticides, but I can't think they help. Maybe it's climatic. No swallows for two years either now but the small owl put them off. Plenty of flies round the stock in summer, though the sheep are sprayed with fly treatment as are the cattle. [/QUOTE]
