Slugs are very voracious pests and can cause significant damage to crops.
At the same time, they can also be carriers of various diseases.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told us what remedy will help scare these pests away from the garden.
You can get rid of slugs in your area using garlic infusion.
2 large heads of garlic should be crushed and added to a liter of boiling water.
Place the solution on the stove and let it boil for about 5 minutes. Then strain the solution and cool it.
Before use, a tablespoon of this product should be diluted in a liter of water. Afterwards, it should be applied to the plants and soil.
Moreover, this product effectively fights not only slugs, but also other unwanted insects.
An infusion of wormwood will also help get rid of pests on the site.
Wormwood should be crushed and filled with water in a ratio of 1 to 5. It should be infused for about two weeks.
Moreover, it is advisable to stir this product every three days. Then it is enough to spray it on plants that are often attacked by slugs.
You can protect your garden beds from pests using some plants.
To do this, it is enough to plant mint, marigolds, rosemary, parsley, thyme and other plants with a strong smell nearby.
