Any experienced gardener knows that when moles appear on the site, you cannot relax: you need to try to deal with the pests immediately.
The longer moles "live" in your dacha, the more damage they will cause.
Some use modern methods of pest control. They are, of course, effective, but it is not always possible to purchase them. In such cases, you can turn to proven methods for help, says landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti".
What methods are recommended to pay attention to?
Plant legumes
Few people know that moles do not appear in areas where various legumes are constantly grown. This is an excellent means of protection against pests.
All varieties are effective.
Flowers
We are talking about bulbous varieties. It is worth paying attention to calendula with marigolds. The fact is that these flowers alone are able to protect the garden not only from moles, but also from almost all other pests.
You can also try planting tulips with hyacinths.
Fish
Moles are very sensitive to unpleasant smells, so you need to use this knowledge. It is best to pay attention to fish waste (heads, for example).
They are sent to the soil. It is advisable to find a place near the pest's hole.
By the way, decomposing fish waste will not only drive away moles, but will also make the soil more fertile.
