Looks like I will have to find something stronger to get rid of them.
In case anyone is wondering - the time lapse of the apple is still in progress. Two weeks now. It's a slow process. After the first three days I did reset the timing from one shot every 10 minutes to one shot every 20 minutes.
These are good.
ReplyDeleteI used to use washing up liquid on greenfly. Can't recall how successful it was.
The timelapse should be very smooth. I was thinking in terms of half a dozen shots per day. Maybe a banana would go off faster.
Adrian: I had thought about using a bit of Fairy.
DeleteThe apple seemed to seal itself so it's taking a long time for any reaction to take place. A banana is a good idea. I am forever leaving one or two for too long in the cupboard.
Fairy washes the wax off them and they don't like that.
DeleteJohn - I am so glad that greenfly do not look like this to the naked eye.
ReplyDeleteLooks like early bees are feeding off their sap though, on the ivy leaves near me
ReplyDeleteI bet dishwashing soap would work for the infestation. Great images, especially the last one with "mini-me".
