Aphids on plum: can you get rid of them and how
The appearance of aphids on a summer cottage plot is a big problem. After all, this pest is capable of quickly destroying plantings on the plot and depriving the entire harvest.
Therefore, immediate action must be taken.
Experienced gardeners recommend doing preventive treatments of fruit trees in early spring. In extreme cases, the treatment can be done directly on the swelling buds.
For this purpose, you can use various medications, for example, Fufanon, Aktara or Voliam.
If the first colonies of aphids appear, then do not waste time. You need to use a systemic insecticide.
The main thing, as gardeners note, is not to use the preparations during plum blossom. Also, do not use the products during the day, when bees are active in the garden.
Summer residents note that aphids spread very quickly, which means that treatment must be carried out throughout the entire garden.
If the tree is small and there are few aphids, then Fitoverm will do.
