Pests in the garden - to fight naturally

Insecticides that endanger bees and other beneficial insects and impair human health must not be used in the organic garden. Beneficial insects, such as ladybirds and lacewings, as well as wasps, ground beetles, earwigs, birds, bats, and spiders, help to ward off pests and can be specifically promoted and settled by environmentally conscious gardeners. The book also portrays the 70 most important pests of vegetables, fruit, lawns, and bushes and presents all preventive and natural control measures, whether against voles, butterfly caterpillars, beetles, snails, aphids, wireworms, grubs, mites, or hares. Mammals that feed on plants can be deterred with sounds or odorous substances, while glue rings, lime coatings, or pheromone traps help against insect pests. Additionally, targeted biological pesticides are discussed.
