How to Save Tomatoes from Spider Mites: Village Tricks

It is worth starting to fight spider mites as soon as you have identified the pest: otherwise, it can ruin your harvest.

Experienced gardeners, as a rule, use various methods to protect tomatoes from insects.

What methods can be tried?

Laundry soap

Landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", advises to take a closer look at the simplest and most effective means.

First, we dissolve a piece of soap in a crushed form in water. We estimate the resulting volume of liquid and add five times more clean water.

If the spider mite has already "attacked" the tomatoes, then we treat them every 48 hours. For preventive treatment, the product is used only once every seven days.

Alcohol

To prepare an effective remedy, you will need pure alcohol. For each liter of water, take just one drop of the "fiery" substance.

Treatment is also carried out every seven days.

It is best to spray tomatoes in the evening.
