    I am having exactly the same problem. Not for the first time I am now wondering how long it will be before gardeners begin to see through the current fashion craze for all things 'organic' and start applying pressure to the politicians who (knowing and caring nothing at all about either science or gardening) have banned just about every pesticide known to man.

    I gather slug pellets are next. I bought four giant tubs of them last Saturday.

    They are evil wee things, I had no problem last year but this year they destroyed my brussell sprouts and I was devastated!
    Taking responsibility one penny at a time!

    To deter cabbage white fly, I recommend using Enviromesh.

    Enviromesh is a great product designed particularly to protect vegetables and crops.

    For more information on enviromesh, check out my website below.

    You can buy enviromesh from Gardening Naturally our sister site.
    I hope this helps you.
