Not your typical greenhouse pest!

Sri Lanka

We receive queries on pest control on a nearly daily basis here at AutoPot HQ; lacewings, aphids, spider mites… even rats and mice! We thought we’d heard them all. So it raised a few eyebrows when we got a Skype call from Nihal, our customer in Sri Lanka complaining that the local monkey population had taken a liking to the produce growing in his greenhouse.

Nihal has built a greenhouse in a clearing close to the jungle and is trialling several crops in his AutoPots before deciding what to produce on a commercial scale. It seems that the pesky primates have taken an interest in his selection of chillies, peppers, cucumbers and lettuce. Still, as pests go we think we’d settle for monkeys over aphids… especially if we had that view to look at every day!
