We have a plague of rape seed (pollen) beetles in our area. Have read conflicting views as to if they are harmful to garden plants. Our little plot is gardened for wild life so greenfly etc are expected and only treated with soapy water if they become a real problem. Can anyone tell me if I need to wash off the pesky rape beetles from my orange tree flowers.

Heatwave now, but what’s the betting…?
Lest we forget what we have just lost ....
The government changed women's pension age and called it progress. Did anyone actually ask you?
