When pests appear on the site, many people start to panic and go to the store for the most powerful industrial product to solve the problem.
This impulse is understandable, but it is not always worth rushing to use chemicals.
It is wiser to first try more delicate methods, advises landscape designer and agricultural scientist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti.
How to easily and simply overcome pests
Aphid
You will need to mix half a glass of mustard powder and ten liters of water. After that, do not touch the infusion for forty-eight hours.
Next, pour in another bucket of water and begin spraying the plants. If necessary, the procedure can be repeated.
Slugs
It is even easier to overcome these pests: you just need to block their access to the plantings. To do this, combine ash (possibly with large pieces), hot pepper powder and mustard.
All ingredients are taken in equal proportions.
Afterwards, sprinkle the paths with the perimeter. You can forget about slugs.
