To put it mildly, it is very unpleasant to see aphids on their 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 fall off or give deformed flowers. The danger lies in the fact that because of the 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 to control aphids with folk remedies, but about how to prevent the appearance of these pests. In order for the plants to not attack the aphids, it is necessary to monitor the conditions in which they are found. Plants should be placed in bright, ventilated areas of the room, and cleaning the flowers and removing all dried leaves should become regular procedures.
If you still couldn’t prevent the disaster, and one fine day you find 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 using potent chemicals. So, for indoor flowers, the following method is suitable: if there are 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 by folk remedies to be effective, place the plant with the pot in a package of 5 hours. After this procedure, arrange a kind of shower: it will wash off the insects and refresh the flower. You can completely get rid of pests in 3-4 such procedures, which should be performed with an interval of 4-5 days. There will be no harm to the plant or to 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 by which the struggle against aphids can be carried out with folk remedies. Equally effective is the use of a celandine decoction or tincture of citrus plant peels.
In order to prevent the negative impact of this pest on garden plants, you can prepare the following infusion: 1 kg of well-ground potato tops must be poured with 10 liters of water and insisted for at least 5 hours. The filtered liquid must be sprayed with all damaged crops.
A lot of trouble is delivered to the owners of gardens and other pests, such as, for example, a bear and bugs. Many people are interested in fighting a bear with folk remedies no less than with aphids. Of course, getting rid of this insect will be harder, but it's worth trying to remove it without chemicals. So, in each bear’s move found, pour soapy water: this will make it get to the surface of the earth, where you can kill it already. 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 bugs in the house. But removing the latter without the use of special tools is quite difficult. Of course, some experienced housewives argue that the fight against bedbugs with folk remedies is possible. To do this, it is advised to purchase kerosene or turpentine, with which it is necessary to treat all infected places, as well as an apparatus capable of emitting a stream of hot moist air
(a steam mop or a steam cleaner). If you see that pest control does not give the desired result, then for complete disposal of bugs it is better to contact specialists.
