As is known, during the period when strawberries are gathering berries, the immunity of plants decreases due to high dedication.

According to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , strawberry bushes at this time are often affected by insect pests.

As a result, plants begin to wither, and in particularly severe cases, they refuse to bear fruit at all.

Perhaps, it is clear to everyone that strong chemicals are currently prohibited, but we should not discount the possibilities of effective means that are safe for humans.

It turns out that you can fight pests even with the most ordinary water.

In the evenings, when watering the beds with a hose, try to knock down the parasites with a stream. At the same time, your relations should be careful and cautious, so as not to harm the ovary.

Another helper in the fight against harmful insects is ash. To do this, pour 3 kg of ash with 10 liters of boiling water, adding 50 g of grated laundry soap.

Use the strained liquid for leaf treatment. The procedure should be repeated after 5 days.
