Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh explained how to clear a garden of woodlice.

How to get rid of a weed

It is necessary to get rid of woodlice immediately after their appearance. Otherwise, they will begin to grow strongly and “take over” the garden.

A herbicide can be used to control this weed.

It is enough to dilute any such product according to the instructions and treat the above-ground part of the site with it.

As a result, after a week or two, the weed will die. It is only important to carry out such treatment after harvesting.

In autumn, the weed can produce a lot of seeds. Therefore, in the spring, after the appearance of woodlice, repeated treatment will be necessary.

The area must be treated at least three weeks before planting the main plants.

After this, woodlice will not appear so actively. But it is important to remove any weeds that appear immediately.

Also, after weeding, you cannot leave woodlice in the garden bed, otherwise it may take root again.
