Aphids are one of the dangerous garden pests. Insects multiply quickly and attack plantings.

As a result, the plants become weaker, and in extreme cases, if the situation is neglected, they may even die.

Naturally, there can be no talk of beautiful and long-lasting flowering of roses or high-quality fruiting of currants.

If there are few insects, they can be washed off with a strong stream of water from a hose.

It is advisable not to forget about special preparations against aphids. They can be biological, contact and systemic. The first ones will be safer for plants, pets and humans.

You can also pay attention to folk methods. But the treatment will have to be carried out three times a week.

To do this, you can make a soap solution from household and tar soap. After that, the product can be sprayed on the plantings.

You can also dilute a teaspoon of ammonia in a liter of water and spray the liquid on flowers and shrubs.
