Although woodlice are not among the most dangerous weeds, they can still cause a lot of problems.

Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist and landscape designer, tells what to do if your garden is infested with woodlice.

How to get rid of woodlice

If there are not many woodlice on the site, you can get by with manual weeding.

The main thing is to have time to weed out all the grass before flowering, otherwise the seeds will spread throughout the area, and you will have to start all over again.

In case of severe spread, the most effective method is treatment with herbicide.

The treatment is carried out in the fall after harvesting. The weed will die 1-2 weeks after spraying.

If necessary, repeat treatment can be carried out in the spring 3 weeks before planting vegetable crops.
