Control Of Garden Pest’s This Summer.
Be a step Ahead Of Pest – The summer of 2011 has already been labeled a damp summer and as a result of this damp period the gardener’s number one enemy, the slug, feels right at home.Wet cool conditions are just the stimulus that slugs look for to get on with their business. When these garden gobblers are on the loose gardeners see beloved blooms reduced to lace curtains, and turn to weapons of mass destruction to keep the slimy beasts under control.
The most frequently used measure used to control these slimy pest is the slug pellet method. The sales of slug pellets have tremendously increased this summer and though known to be effective they are still not without their hazards. Their sweet shaped appearance may come as a deception to children and present a serious risk especially during summertime when children are frequently at play in gardens at home and away from home. The best solution to us here at GardenAdvice are biological controls such as Nematodes. This solution allows for your plants to grow as healthy as possible without the use of chemicals.
