How to attract ladybugs to your plot: saving from aphids
Not all summer residents know that it is very useful and profitable to be friends with ladybugs.
An expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told about the benefits of spotted bugs.
Experienced plant growers claim that if we manage to lure these insects to our plot, you will be able to forget about chemicals designed to fight pests for the entire season.
Red bugs with black spots on their backs actively eat one of the most dangerous pests that can be found in the garden – aphids.
In addition, the larvae of numerous pests are also eaten.
To make the garden attractive to ladybugs, some farmers spray the plants with sweet water, but there is another, much less troublesome way.
It consists of planting herbs on the plot.
These include cumin, parsley, basil, coriander, and others. Their aroma is believed to be a magnet for beneficial bugs.
