The use of certain plants in the garden significantly reduces the number of insects that lay claim to our harvest, and can also protect the area from rodents.
To do this, you just need to choose the right crops.
Not all summer residents plant this aromatic greenery, although it can add a pleasant variety to the diet. Thanks to cilantro, even an ordinary vegetable salad seems more intriguing and unusual.
The advantage of cilantro is that its very intense aroma will not allow rodents to get into the area, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer.
You should definitely plant mint in your garden, as it will not only be a remedy against rodents and other pests, but also an excellent ingredient for summer tea and soft drinks.
This plant will definitely come in handy after harvesting: chamomile tea can be called one of the best remedies against stress and poor sleep.
Another pleasant benefit of chamomile is that the flower repels mice and rats.
