Caterpillars are dangerous pests that can cause significant damage to your garden and plants in a short period of time.

Chemical means of controlling caterpillars are not always effective, as they can harm beneficial insects and the seedlings themselves.

There is an affordable way to get rid of caterpillars from your garden by protecting your plants. And chamomile will help you out.

How to Use Chamomile Against Pests

You can fight the invasion of caterpillars using flowers. Some gardeners specially grow chamomile on their plots to use it later to prepare a solution or as mulch.

For a solution against caterpillars, take 150-200 g of chamomile and fill it with hot water up to 70 degrees (1.5 l), cover the container with a lid and let it stand for 2 weeks.

Strain the finished infusion through cheesecloth into a bucket and fill it to the brim with running water. After that, you can start spraying.

We carry out the treatment once every 14 days, spraying all plantings in the beds and garden trees.
