Some weeds can be useful. For example, they can protect the area from harmful insects.

If you make solutions based on wormwood or simply spread this plant around the area, you can get rid of mosquitoes and codling moths.

Dandelions save from aphids in the garden, and tansy from moths in the closet. Yarrow will drive away thrips, caterpillars and spider mites.

The solution is very easy to prepare. You need to take up to 200 grams of dry raw material and pour it with two glasses of boiling water. This product should be infused for about an hour. Then it should be filtered and mixed with 40 grams of grated laundry soap. Then you can spray the mixture.

These are not all the benefits of having wild herbs on your property.

The thing is that they can be used for compost. The main thing is that the seeds of such plants do not get into the fertilizer.

You can also prepare separate infusions for feeding fruit crops.

To do this, fill the barrel 3/4 full with chopped weeds, then add water and cover with a lid, but not tightly. Leave the container in a sunny place for a week. Stir the mixture periodically.

The finished fermented liquid should be filtered and diluted in a ratio of 1:10. Then you can water the plants at the root. Such an infusion will have a positive effect on the immunity of the plantings.
