The appearance of this pest on the site is a headache for any summer resident.
Still, beetles are capable of causing serious damage to crops.
And we are not only talking about potato beds, since parasites also like to feast on tomatoes or eggplants.
It is not always possible to drive away beetles. Therefore, many people try to use store-bought chemical-based products to solve the problem.
But don't rush to buy chemicals against the Colorado potato beetle. Such preparations can be replaced with components that are safer for humans and animals, but still drive away insects.
You just need to take dry mustard and vinegar.
The first component should be diluted in a 10-liter bucket of water until completely dissolved. Then 100 ml of 9% vinegar should be poured into this mixture.
Then the resulting product must be sprayed onto the beds.
