Click beetle larvae are voracious, and the beetles themselves are famous for their fertility, so these pests cause a lot of trouble for summer residents.
One way to protect your crop from wireworms is to mix the soil in the planting hole with one powder.
Wireworm Remedy
The only downside is that it is suitable for a small planting area. A handful of ground mustard is poured into each planting hole, which is lightly mixed with the soil. Wireworms cannot stand mustard. The larvae of the cockchafer do not like it either.
Get rid of couch grass
The branchy roots of couch grass are one of the most favorite habitats of wireworms. Therefore, the weed must be gotten rid of to reduce the likelihood of the pest appearing. If there is little couch grass, then you can deal with it manually.
If there is a lot of grass, then summer residents use a herbicide. For example, "Fusilad Forte", which is harmless to potatoes, since it affects only cereal crops, which include couch grass.
