0:02:23 > 0:02:26Yes, we did!

0:02:26 > 0:02:30We're sneaky. We're sneaky. We're sneaky. We're sneaky...

0:02:30 > 0:02:34But not as sneaky as these little radishes.

0:02:34 > 0:02:36LAUGHTER

0:02:36 > 0:02:40TRAIN WHISTLES

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Oh, the tiddlers are here.

0:02:42 > 0:02:46Indeed they are. Right, I'm off to work. See you later.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Hey there, tiddlers. Take a seat.

0:02:59 > 0:03:03- You've got something behind you. - You've got something on your back.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06On my back?!

0:03:06 > 0:03:09Wait a minute, what's this?

0:03:09 > 0:03:12Oh! It's a cheeky picture, isn't it?

0:03:12 > 0:03:15It's of you.

0:03:15 > 0:03:16That is of me.

0:03:16 > 0:03:17I know who did this.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20It was that cheeky Raymond and Colin.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23Oh, the little pests!

0:03:23 > 0:03:27Do you know what they did? Fill my wellie boots with compost.

0:03:27 > 0:03:31Oh, well, it's nice to see you. Now, who've we got today?

0:03:31 > 0:03:36Ariane, we've got Grace and Harry. Are you feeling happy today?

0:03:36 > 0:03:39- ALL: Yes!- Good. Enough of this tomfoolery, eh?

0:03:39 > 0:03:42Cos we have got gardening to do.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45Now, did you bring your magnifying glasses?

0:03:45 > 0:03:46ALL: No!

0:03:46 > 0:03:48Have you not? Oh.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51That's a bit of a problem because, um,

0:03:51 > 0:03:53well, you need your magnifying glasses.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55ALL: Tricked you!

0:03:55 > 0:03:56Oh!

0:03:56 > 0:03:59You played a trick on me!

0:03:59 > 0:04:02Oh, not you as well? That was a funny trick, that was.

0:04:02 > 0:04:05We need our magnifying glasses today

0:04:05 > 0:04:07because we're on the lookout

0:04:07 > 0:04:10for pests that have been spoiling my vegetables.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13So keep your eyes peeled.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15But what about those carrots over there?

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Take a look at those.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20- Do they look healthy and happy?- No.

0:04:20 > 0:04:22What's the matter with them?

0:04:22 > 0:04:26- They've got a bump.- They've got bumps and holes in.- Yeah.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29I pulled them up from a different part of the garden

0:04:29 > 0:04:31and they're not very well at all.

0:04:31 > 0:04:34Look here I've got one here and can you see?

0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Someone's been nibbling away. - It's the pests.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Yes, it is a pest.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42It's called a carrot fly

0:04:42 > 0:04:44and what he does is

0:04:44 > 0:04:46he flies around my nursery

0:04:46 > 0:04:50and he's sniffing out for my carrots.

0:04:50 > 0:04:52HE IMITATES FLY

0:04:52 > 0:04:54When he finds my carrots,

0:04:54 > 0:04:59he lands on the ground and he buries down into the soil

0:04:59 > 0:05:02and he lays his eggs in the soil.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05And then the eggs hatch

0:05:05 > 0:05:07and out come little maggots

0:05:07 > 0:05:11and they wake up and start munching on my carrots

0:05:11 > 0:05:15cos carrots, they're their favourite food,

0:05:15 > 0:05:18and all my tasty carrots, they get ruined, don't they?

0:05:18 > 0:05:20ALL: Yeah.

0:05:20 > 0:05:23But, tiddlers, listen to this.

0:05:23 > 0:05:27I've got a sneaky trick, which I'm going to play on the carrot flies.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30Listen... who knows what this is?

0:05:30 > 0:05:35- Apple? Onion. - That's right, Harry. It's an onion.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37Sniff that.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40- Let me sniff.- Yuck!

0:05:40 > 0:05:42What's it like, Harry?

0:05:42 > 0:05:46- Stinky pants. - It's a bit of a ponger, isn't it?

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Now, tiddlers, what I'm going to do

0:05:48 > 0:05:51is to plant onions around my carrots.

0:05:51 > 0:05:55It means that the carrot flies won't be able to smell the carrots

0:05:55 > 0:05:58cos all they'll be able to smell is?

0:05:58 > 0:06:00- Onion!- Onions!

0:06:00 > 0:06:02Can you tiddlers help me plant?

0:06:02 > 0:06:04ALL: Yeah!

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Let's make it amongst the carrots.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09Pop it in there and then tuck it in.

0:06:09 > 0:06:13There's your little onion bulb, Grace.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18Good job!

0:06:21 > 0:06:24That is a super sneaky job, tiddlers. Well done.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27Shall we pretend to be carrot flies?

0:06:27 > 0:06:30- ALL: Yeah. - OK, let's take off. Wings out.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33THEY BUZZ LIKE FLIES

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Can anybody smell any carrots?

0:06:45 > 0:06:47No!

0:06:47 > 0:06:50Oh. What can we smell?

0:06:50 > 0:06:53ALL: Onions.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56Oh, no! It smells of onions! Eugh! Ping pong!
