This parasite is difficult to fight. The wireworm causes the most damage to potato crops.
As a result, such fruits can no longer be stored, which means that the harvest will be spoiled.
Other crops are also susceptible to wireworm attacks. This pest eats the root system of plants.
Fighting wireworms
He loves weeds, especially couch grass. Therefore, weeds must be completely removed.
Dolomite flour should be added annually. The procedure can be carried out in spring or autumn.
In addition, it would not be superfluous to plant green manure, which can also improve the condition of the soil and fight pests. For example, wireworm does not like mustard. Therefore, in the fall, it should be planted in those places where this parasite was noticed.
Also, when planting potatoes, you can add additional agents to the holes that can protect against pests. "Zemlin" or "Provotoks" will help protect the harvest for the whole year.
