When the Currant Sawfly attacked my gooseberries, I covered the
surrounding soil with that 3 ft. wide nursery fabric that allows water to
penetrate. I snuggled the fabric right up to the base of the plants. The
fabric is still in place; consequently, they were/are prevented from
pupating in the soil. I've never had another infestation of the critters.
