Rodents pose a serious danger to garden and vegetable crops.
To combat them, the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh advises using chemicals.
But do not forget that such drugs have a serious drawback - they can harm not only the mice you are fighting, but also the plants you are growing and pets.
What to do? Try to get by with natural means, for example, plant certain plants on the site.
The main thing is to find those whose smell pests don't like. Daffodils rightfully take first place in this category.
To protect your property from rodent infestation, plant these ornamental plants around the perimeter of the garden bed.
Daffodil bulbs are poisonous to mice, so they are unlikely to visit areas where these attractive flowers grow.
As experienced gardeners note, daffodils protect potatoes from pests especially well. Next season, be sure to plant them around the perimeter of the garden, and you will see a decent result.
For reference
Muridae is a family of mammals from the order of rodents (Rodentia).
