Lemon Tree Flies


Hi

I have a lemon tree that doesn't seem to produce fruit. It seems to
have very small lemons on it but then drops them as they are growing.
The tree also has a large amount of small, silver flies in the soil.
Could this be anything to do with the tree not producing fruit?

Please help

Thanks
