Despite their tiny size, aphids are capable of causing colossal damage to cultivated plants.
According to the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , not only garden and horticultural crops, but even ornamental plants are at risk.
According to many gardeners, there is no more effective remedy against this parasite than ammonia.
To prepare a solution that is deadly for aphids, you will need to fill a 10-liter bucket with water and add 50 ml of ammonia.
In addition, you will need 2 tablespoons (35 ml) of garden green soap.
This treatment will not only help to cope with the pest, but will also saturate the plantings with nitrogen.
Important: you can use ammonia to control aphids in early spring and early summer.
The day when you decide to go on the warpath with the pest should be cloudy, dry and windless. In extreme cases, go to the beds at nightfall.
