One frustration that many gardeners face is insect invasions. Vegetables or flowers look good one day, and the next half of the leaves, blooms, or produce has been ravaged by evil little critters looking for a free meal. There are several ways to prevent insects from “bugging” you and your plants.
- Make certain the soil is healthy and right for the things you want to grow. If not, you can “strengthen” it up with additives that will help create strong roots and beautiful and delicious produce. Don’t just focus on having “healthy” soil though, focus on having soil that will be healthy for the things you plan to grow.
- Attract the good guys to beat the bad guys. If you can attract insects like praying mantis and other beneficial insects, many of your bad bug problems will be solved. The good insects will eat the bad insects, and the good guys won’t eat your produce.
