Chemical means for fighting insect pests cope with their task without complaints, but only then you have to think about the quality of the harvest..
Gardeners and summer residents who advocate environmentally friendly farming have solved this problem for themselves and refused pesticides..
In summer cottage circles, it is believed that only five plants can replace pesticides, and at the same time decorate the site.
Marigolds
It has been noted that where these flowers grow, root nematodes are not found. Marigolds protect plant roots by repelling pests.
Marigolds repel whiteflies with the same success.
Cosmos
It is considered the best natural remedy for aphids. The plant attracts other insects that are natural enemies of aphids.
Violet
Slugs and snails do not like violets, and all because of their special leaves.
Flowers are also effective against other pests, as they also attract insects that feed on garden pests.
Carnation
Aphids don’t like its aroma, and the plant can also drive slugs and snails away from the site.
Zinnia
Gardeners call it a trap for May beetles. Insects are attracted to the flower, thanks to which vegetable and other crops remain unharmed.
