Perhaps every summer resident is familiar with the main pests of raspberries, which include the weevil and the raspberry beetle.

As the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh explains, the attacks of the weevil lead to the buds drying up and falling off.

The consequences of the raspberry beetle are small worms that are so often found in berries.

To ensure that the harvested raspberry crop evokes only pleasant emotions, the plantings should be processed. It is important to have time to do this before flowering.

To ensure comprehensive protection, it is worth using several preparations at once: against diseases, against pests, and fertilizing.

So, for 10 liters of water you will need:

Use the resulting product to spray on leaves and buds.

Since the finished composition cannot be stored, its remains can be used to treat pears and apple trees.
