A mole cricket is perhaps the biggest nuisance that can happen to a summer resident, since it causes serious damage to the garden and vegetable garden..
What is noteworthy is that it eats only cultivated plants, while weeds, as a rule, remain without its attention.
Signs that a mole cricket has appeared on your property
If you notice that the leaves of strong and healthy plants have begun to wither, the pest is probably the cause.
Evidence that a mole cricket has visited you may be burrows and passages in the soil.
You are unlikely to see the parasite, because it mainly lives in the soil, so if you have discovered the listed signs, you should immediately begin active actions against the mole cricket.
How to get rid of a mole cricket
A comprehensive approach will help you with this. Even before you start sowing, buy and dig special baits with poison shallowly into the ground. In addition, regularly cultivate the soil to a depth of 15 cm.
Experienced gardeners often resort to such a method as loosening – the bear does not like that its tunnels are constantly destroyed, so it will probably decide to find a new place for itself.
Both control and prevention methods are effective.
