If you begin to notice that your plants are constantly attacked by pests, then, unfortunately, you cannot do without the use of chemicals. Yes, the word "pesticides" scares everyone. But sometimes it will be even worse without them. After all, pests can destroy your entire garden area. And then there is no time to make a choice. Today, pesticides are the most effective remedy that will fight with parents for your garden. Although it is effective, but, unfortunately, not harmless to human health, it must be used very carefully, with extreme caution. We will tell you in detail about the benefits of pesticides for your garden in the article.
Remember the main rule. The more time has passed from the moment you sprayed the plant with the pesticide to the fruit setting, the less harmful chemicals will remain on them, and therefore on your table. Therefore, it is best to process trees and shrubs before they begin to bloom. This is very important if you do not want to harm your health and experience the full benefits of pesticides.
The benefits of pesticides and copper sulfate
Before you start treating your garden with beneficial pesticides, try to remember what pests you encountered in the past year. Suppose that last year you found scab on your apple tree. This year she will definitely return to you. Therefore, it is best to pre-treat the trunk, branches, and also the near-trunk circle with copper sulfate at the rate of 50 g per 10 liters of water.
Pesticides: urea
In general, nitrogen fertilizer urea (carbamide) works quite well against all kinds of pests, such as the codling moth, aphids, leaf beetles, sawflies. It is recommended to use it in high concentration - 500 g per 10 liters of water. This pesticide should be sprayed in the same way as other pesticides - before bud break, before they bloom.
Hot water
But, unfortunately, there are pests that even a pesticide cannot defeat. For example, a currant mite. It's not about the "superpower" of this pest. The simple fact is that this insect penetrates into the kidney, lives there, and leaves its "home" only for a short time. Therefore, chemicals are simply physically unable to get to it. At the same time, you can easily see exactly those kidneys that the tick has already infected. They are distinguished by their size compared to other buds, and they are shaped like a ball. But you can still try to get the pest. Very hot water (50 degrees) can help. With such boiling water, you need to water the infected plant from a watering can. This should be done when the buds have just begun to bloom before the leaves began to appear. Don't be afraid that hot water can harm your plants. It is at this stage of development that nothing will happen, there will be no harm, and you can get rid of the tick.
Benefits of pesticides: Fufanon and Kinmix
Or, for example, apple weevil. He generally lays his eggs in buds. The larvae, which subsequently appear, eat the ovaries and, in this case, you risk losing a fair amount of your harvest even before it begins to bloom. What to do then? It is necessary to spray with a special agent (Fufanon or Kinmix) at a strictly defined time - this is when buds are just beginning to appear from the buds. This is the main condition. If you did not have time to do this, then most likely you will not see the harvest this year.But you can take care of the future harvest by doing everything on time without making any mistakes. And then the benefits of pesticides will be appreciated by you.
