Many summer residents have already tried a lot of methods to combat wireworms, but not all of them bring the desired result.
It is known that the difficulty of control is due to the fact that the pest does not appear on the surface.
Therefore, specific methods must be used, reminds the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", scientist-agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
For example, you can simply plant suitable plants on the site.
What can you choose?
Correct green manure
Not everyone knows that some green manures attract wireworms, which are not averse to eating them. Therefore, you should categorically refuse grain options if you have this pest at your dacha.
But lupine, mustard or oilseed radish will drive away wireworms.
Beans or pumpkins
These options are ideal if you are looking for crops to rest the soil and improve its health. Legumes will make the soil nutritious and fertile again, and will also drive away wireworms.
But any plants from the pumpkin family do not arouse any interest in the pest, so it will be forced to go in search of a more “interesting” area.
