Many gardeners do not want to say goodbye to the flowers that just a few months ago decorated the area with their lush greenery and lush flowering.

To avoid losing the plants, they are taken home for the winter.

However, before you take the flower pots "under the roof of your home", the plants need to be treated. Twice.

So, the first treatment is intended to get rid of possible pests.

To do this, you will need 10 liters of water and 6 g of a preparation called "Aktara". As you might have guessed, it needs to be dissolved in liquid and the resulting product used for spraying.

By the way, “Aktara” is not the only possible option – you can use any other drug with a similar effect.

The purpose of the second treatment is to “eliminate” pathogens of various diseases.

To do this, you need to stock up on Fitoverm: 8 ml of the preparation will be needed for one liter of water. The solution, as in the first case, must be sprayed on the plants.
