Wireworms are perceived by owners of country houses as real enemies.
The fact is that click beetle larvae pose a huge danger to many garden crops.
These pests can easily deprive a summer resident of a significant portion of his harvest of potatoes, carrots, cabbage, onions, and beets.
In addition, wireworms can have a negative impact on flowers and trees.
Of course, gardeners and vegetable growers cannot ignore the problem.
Everything possible must be done to ensure that click beetle larvae do not “touch” the flora.
But how to do this? It turns out that wireworms are afraid of the following:
Compliance by the summer resident with the rules for planting and harvesting
If the owner of a summer cottage does not violate crop rotation rules, then wireworms are unlikely to appear in the garden and vegetable garden.
The result will be consolidated if a person removes root crops from the beds in time and also monitors the condition of the soil.
Special preparations
There are many insecticides that work well against wireworms.
First of all, we are talking about such drugs as “Bazudin” and “Zemlin”.
Birds
Do crows, thrushes and starlings periodically appear on your country property?
Think a thousand times before you start chasing away these birds.
After all, the above-mentioned birds are natural enemies of wireworms.
