Managing pests in an organic garden is much more than just getting rid of the "bad bugs". Following organic gardening principles helps your garden be healthier and that means fewer pests. Then when there are pests, it's important to know which organic methods really work. Find out in this video.
It is important to understand the importance of healthy soil and plants as it relates to common pests in the garden. Healthy plants and soil are the best defense against pests. Pests often choose plants that are weakened in some way. Before you decide which action to take, read through these tips for effective organic pest control and prevention in the garden.

There’s lots of companion plants that actually attract pests which is what attracts the predatory insects who feed on them. Many things say “attracts ladybugs”, when in reality they attract aphids who in turn attract the ladybugs to come eat the aphids. Understanding how these plants/bugs work is so very important in my opinion

@cyndy-synchrotherapybishop2453 2 ай бұрын

You are gravely misinformed and wrong. Ladybugs do NOT attract aphids. If you feel that way, then you are doing something wrong in yr garden that is either attracting more aphids or you are not handling the problem effectively. There are also very specific times of day and ways in which the ladybugs must be released in order for them to stay and feed in yr garden.

@nastytechniquez9685 2 ай бұрын

@@cyndy-synchrotherapybishop2453 hahahaha I didn’t say that ladybugs attract pests… the PESTS attract the ladybugs as it’s their food source. Please don’t call someone misinformed when you’re barely literate

I don’t know what kind of small birds you guys have in the garden but I will never put that yellow sticky tape in the garden again. Walked out last week to find a beautiful lesser golden finch with its wings completely spread out across the tape dead. I immediately cut down every single one of those things and will never buy them again. Please Use with caution.

Hummingbirds eat tiny bugs. That's how they get their protein. Having a couple of hummingbird feeders encourages them into the garden. Also have a bird bath, etc to attract other birds. Orioles eat hornworms. You'll get your bugs taken care of and also get to enjoy the birds singing to you in the mornings.

I have two big gardens and I learned a lot during the years of trying different methods to control pests.I have quails in my covered greenhouse and I noticed i have very less infected plants with pests rather than my other garden uncovered and exposed to all kinds of animals. I’m a beekeeper and i plant lots of flowers for them and it’s good for my garden as i see.

I like that u covered leave thing alone sometimes. I has a full on aphid infestation with ants on all my okra. I later watched a lady bugs moved in even saw babies there and spotted a few lacewings in the night. Now all the aphids are gone. Also I saw a tomato horn worm but as soon as I spotted it I saw it covered with parasitic wasp cocoons and it's dying. Everyone should learn what attracts your beneficial insects and they will keep your garden in balance.

@minadoro Жыл бұрын

We chop the leaves and use them as mulch in a thin layer .

@barneyrubble4827 11 ай бұрын

You should do that long as they're not diseased but certain plants ALWAYS have disease like tomatoes & squash. They're so susceptible to powdery mildew & squash bugs, don't do it. I always pull weeds, knock off all soil & lay with roots exposed for mulch. I train squash up onto a fence or trellace, makes finding its bugs & eggs 10x easier. Always keep toms & squash pruned on bottom, leaves w/o sun exposure die early & invite problems

I used marigolds through all of my potted garden and Raised garden they worked really well. When I started to see a little tiny dead spots on my kale leaves the store near me suggested putting ladybugs out so I bought a bag of ladybugs they come from California and I think that helped to but I still did have some spots which then spread over to watermelon so I’m going to make up a homemade insecticide and spray them now.
