To put it mildly, it is very unpleasant to see aphids on your home or garden plants, because because of it they weaken, their resistance to various diseases decreases. In addition, aphids can even be a carrier of a number of viral diseases. Most often, this insect likes to be located on the inside of the leaves, shoots and buds. Damaged leaves usually turn yellow and curl, and buds drop or produce deformed flowers. The danger lies in the fact that due to aphids, a sticky coating appears on the leaves, which can be an ideal place for the development of the fungus.
To avoid these problems, first of all, you need to think not about how the fight against aphids should be carried out with folk remedies, but about how to prevent the appearance of these pests. In order for plants not to be attacked by aphids, it is necessary to monitor the conditions in which they are located. Plants are best placed in bright, ventilated areas of the room, and cleaning flowers and removing all dried leaves should become regular procedures.
If trouble is preventedall the same, it didn’t work out, and one fine day you discovered an aphid invasion on your flowers - then you are probably interested in fighting aphids with folk remedies in your apartment or on the site, without the use of potent chemicals. So, for indoor flowers, the following method is suitable: if there are still not too many insects, then collect them with your hands and treat the damaged plant with pre-prepared water into which garlic was squeezed (4 medium cloves are enough per liter of water).
In order for the fight against aphids with folk remedies to be effective, place the plant together with the pot in a bag of hours for 5. After this procedure, arrange a kind of shower: it will wash away the insects and refresh the flower. You can completely get rid of pests in 3-4 such procedures, which should be performed with a break of 4-5 days. There will be no harm to either the plant or others when using this method. By the way, instead of garlic, you can use onions or even tobacco.
But this is not the only way that folk remedies can be used to combat aphids. No less effective is the use of a decoction of celandine or tincture of peels from citrus plants.
In order to prevent the negative impact of this pest on garden plants, you can prepare the following infusion: 1 kg of well-chopped potato tops must be poured into 10 liters of water and insisted for at least 5 hours. Strained liquid must be sprayed on all damagedculture.
A lot of trouble is delivered to the mistresses of gardens and orchards by other pests, such as, for example, a bear and bedbugs. The fight against Medvedka with folk remedies is of no less interest to many than with aphids. Of course, getting rid of this insect will be harder, but it's worth trying to get it out without chemicals. So, in each found move of the bear, pour soapy water: this will make it get out to the surface of the earth, where you can already kill it. And in order to reduce the risk of damage to plants, it is better to plant them in plastic bottles: this method will not allow the pest to get to the roots.
It is almost impossible to avoid the appearance of various pests in the garden or in the garden, as well as to prevent the appearance of bedbugs in the house. But to withdraw the latter without the use of special means is quite difficult. Of course, some experienced housewives claim that the fight against bedbugs with folk remedies is possible. To do this, it is advised to purchase kerosene or turpentine, with which you need to treat all infected places, as well as an apparatus capable of issuing a jet of hot, moist air (steam mop or steam cleaner). If you see that pest control does not give the desired result, then it is better to contact specialists to completely get rid of bedbugs.
