My question is, when strimming in gardens, quite often the garden is higher than the adjoining road. There is the possibility that a small stone could fly out into the road and across the pavement.
What precautionary measures does everyone take.?

I will strip away the ivy tomorrow, with a hangover, - it will be worth it !!
I just pulled down a large, very large ivy; ther were millions of these flys but with the ivy gone, the flies went too.
As Pro Gard says, there must be a source!
These are more suited to housflys and cluser flys than fruitflys.
I beg to differ, there *IS* always a source and a reason why they are attracted into human habitation in the first place.
In restaurants and pubs it is usually due to bad hygiene around the optic lines/ barrels.

- About Me:
- I started out as tree surgeon and qualified with an OND Arb, the three year course included landscaping nursery production and of couse plant knowledge as well as many other related topics.
After leaving college I spent some time working in Germany to gain additional experience.
I returned to England during a bleak economic period,and therefore extended my skill base by moving into garden maintenance and then into landscaping, as well as tree surgery.
It was during this period that I developed a passion for transforming large gardens, and over the next ten years I worked alone in 2 to 3 acre gardens maintaining, designing, developing.
Working with wood and stones and plants, and of course hard landscaping materials.
I am experienced at natural stone walling, after many years of practice.
I now have two employees, and I am still lucky enough to spend all my time working outside in the gardens.
