Birch tar is a remedy that our grandparents were 100% sure to use.
Let's find out what this drug is capable of.
It turns out that tar can come to the rescue when it is necessary to protect plantings from the Colorado potato beetle.
To do this, dissolve 10 g of the product in a 10-liter bucket of water and spray the beds with potatoes and other nightshades.
Birch tar will also help to deal with onion and carrot flies.
In this case, you will have to dissolve a tablespoon of tar in 10 liters of water, then add 30 g of laundry soap, which should first be grated, and then pour it onto the soil at the roots of the onions and carrots.
Tired of butterflies and caterpillars on your cabbage? We act almost the same as in the previous case – a bucket of water, a tablespoon of tar and watering.
You can use the same solution to treat raspberries and not expose the future harvest to the risk of dying from the weevil.
