The appearance of garden pests in garden beds is an eternal problem for owners of country plots.
Dangerous insects must be constantly fought using one or another chemical agent.
Moreover, summer residents are often forced to purchase “their own” preparation for each pest.
But why take such measures if you can limit yourself to using one universal remedy?
What product are we talking about?
A well-known remedy such as ash will become a real salvation for many gardeners.
Many summer residents use unburned wood residues only as fertilizer.
However, ash is not only a source of substances and microelements useful for plants.
Grey-black dust also helps fight many pests.
Moreover, there is no need to waste time on creating an ash solution with any additives. Sometimes it is enough to simply sprinkle the soil.
Against which pests is the product effective?
If unburned wood debris ends up on the soil cover under a garden crop that has become the object of attack by pests, the plant will acquire protection from five unwanted “guests” at once.
Moreover, we are talking not only about insects, but also about gastropods.
Ash is a great protective agent against the following pests:
- cabbage fly;
- aphid;
- codling moth;
- slugs;
- snails.
