Vitax Cabbage Collars

Use the Vitax Cabbage Collars for a quick, non-chemical, and effective method of protecting your cabbages against the Cabbage Root Fly. The collars operate by stopping adult flies from laying eggs close to your plants. This prevents maggots from forming, which eat the roots of cabbages by tunnelling into the soil. These collars can help shield plants growing broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower. Because the collar fits snugly around the plant, it also discourages weed growth and keeps moisture around the roots, which promotes quick plant growth.

After planting and firming the plant in the ground, simply slide the Cabbage Collar around the stem so it fits snuggly. As the plant grows and the stem thickens, the collar opens to avoid any restricted growth.
