The fruit edge
A great resource for fruit growers to get the latest information on different pests that may affect our patches, and how to deal with them. The link provided goes to the page with information regariding the fruit fly, Spotted Wing Drosophila. Many people have raspberries of their own, and this fly will affect those patches as well, not just larger commercial patches. It also will affect wild fruit.
