You can rid your houseplants of pests and diseases only with the help of matches.

To do this, it is enough to stick a few into the ground, but with the part where the sulfur is. The matches should be placed at a distance of 5 centimeters from each other.

After a few days they need to be replaced. Watering on such days should be standard.

You can change matches no more than three times, and then you need to take a break.

Why does it work?

It's all about sulfur. In small doses, it's good for plants.

Flowers grow and develop better from this. In addition, such an element helps to cope with annoying midges and larvae that can attack house flowers.

It also happens that the plant suffers from a sulfur deficiency. The matchstick trick also helps here. But not every hobbyist is able to understand that the plant suffers from a lack of an important element.

It is necessary to pay attention to the appearance of the plant.

In such cases, growth slows down, the leaves become light yellow, and resistance to temperature changes and diseases decreases.
