Hi,
I'm in the process of making my market garden no dig. I'm setting it out mostly in 4' beds, some 3' 6''.
One issue that I anticipate coming up against is an increase in leather jackets - the larvae of crane fly
Tipula oleracea
I wondered if a moveable
chicken tractor that could be rotated around the beds in the quieter months might reduce their numbers, or do the larvae burrow deeper that would be accessible for a
chicken?
If anyone has any
experience in this I'd love to hear about it.
thanks
Mike
