Colorado beetles in the garden beds are a real headache for any gardener.

These parasites spread very quickly, but it is difficult to get rid of them. At the same time, the insects actively attack various garden crops.

It's not just about potatoes, but these beetles also like to eat tomatoes, eggplants and some other plants.

If you don’t take control measures in time, you’ll have to forget about a quality harvest.

But how to deal with annoying insects ?

Here you need to stay calm. There is no need to rush for chemicals.

The situation can be saved with the help of one natural treatment solution.

You just need to prepare a bucket of water, dilute dry mustard in it, and then add 9% vinegar to this mixture. You shouldn't overdo it with the latter product. For a 10-liter bucket of water, just 100 ml of vinegar will be enough.

Once all the components are thoroughly mixed, you can proceed to spraying the area.
