Summer residents love to grow raspberries because they have a pleasant sweet taste and are used in making jams and desserts.
Raspberries are often attacked by a pest – a beetle. It can leave a summer resident without a rich harvest.
To protect fruits from the beetle, you can resort to some means. An expert of the portal "MOS SMI", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh will tell you about them.
Mustard
Mustard is a product that is used not only in the preparation of hot dogs, but also in the fight against the raspberry beetle.
The solution is easy to prepare: 20 grams of mustard powder is diluted in 10 liters of water and left alone for 8 hours. Then all that remains is to spray.
Potato peelings
Many people are used to throwing away peelings, but they can save raspberries from pests.
Place the cleanings under the bushes, digging them in well with soil. You will like the result – the pest will not bother you!
