At the end of the season, many summer residents analyze the chosen methods of pest control, assessing the degree of their effectiveness and the naturalness of the composition.
It is also worth looking at new, potentially effective methods in order to enter the new season prepared.
You can try to combat caterpillars using two safe and effective methods that show good results, notes Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, a landscape designer and agronomist.
What methods are not known to all summer residents?
Ground red pepper and baking soda
Both components are safe for human health, soil and the cabbage itself, but for caterpillars it will be a powerful "repellent".
It will be necessary to use the method immediately after planting and repeat it periodically.
First, we add some ash to the hole when planting. Then, we put a layer of the prepared product next to the cabbage. The recipe is simple: for each glass of soda, take a large spoon of hot pepper.
Ammonia
This method has already proven itself to be the best. It is carried out periodically throughout the summer season. First, we water the cabbage.
Then we spray the vegetable with a special composition.
The recipe is also simple: for 10 liters of water, take two large spoons of the pharmaceutical preparation.
