TheMooseZeus Posted September 24, 2018 I recently added a whole lot of horse manure and compost to a garden bed which subsequently attracted many many fruit flys. Should i be worried about these until plants start to fruit? Will they "sting" leaves or will their larvae eat planted seeds? - Cheers all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crop Posted September 25, 2018 Mate as far as I know fruit fly are only a problem for ripe or near ripe fruit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
