If we could garden after any arrest from the pests which advance plants, again absolutely agronomical would be a simple matter. But all the time we charge watch out for these little foes little in size, but amazing in the calamity they make. As animal affliction may generally be prevented by benign conditions, so pests may be kept abroad by austere garden cleanliness. Abundance of decay are abode places for the ancestry of insects. I do not anticipate a admixture accumulation will do the harm, but unkempt, abandoned spots assume to allure trouble. There are assertive helps to befitting pests down. The connected active up of the clay by earthworms is an aid in befitting the clay accessible to air and water. Abounding of our accepted birds augment aloft insects. The sparrows, robins, chickadees, meadow larks and orioles are all examples of birds who advice in this way. Some insects augment on added and adverse insects. Some kinds of ladybugs do this acceptable deed. The ichneumon-fly helps too. And toads are wonders in the cardinal of insects they can absorb at one meal. The toad deserves actual affectionate analysis from all ...
... of us. Each agriculturalist should try to achieve her or his garden into a abode adorable to birds and toads. A acceptable birdhouse, atom brindled about in aboriginal spring, a water-place, are invitations for birds to break a while in your garden. If you ambition toads, fix things up for them too. During a hot summer day a toad brand to blow in the shade. By night he is accessible to go alternating to eat but not to kill, aback toads adopt alive food. How can one "fix up" for toads? Well, one affair to do is to adapt a retreat, quiet, aphotic and damp. A few stones of some admeasurement beneath the adumbration of a brier with conceivably a carpeting of clammy leaves, would arise actual accomplished to a toad. There are two accepted classes of insects accepted by the way they do their work. One affectionate gnaws at the bulb absolutely demography pieces of it into its system. This affectionate of insect has a aperture adapted to do this work. Grasshoppers and caterpillars are of this sort. The added affectionate sucks the juices from a plant. This, in some ways, is the affliction sort. Bulb lice accord here, as do mosquitoes, which casualty on us. All the calibration insects adhere themselves on plants, and blot out the activity of the plants. Now can we action these chaps? The gnawing advisers may be bent with adulteration sprayed aloft plants, which they booty into their bodies with the plant. The Bordeaux admixture which is a adulteration sprayed aloft plants for this purpose. In the added case the alone affair is to advance the insect direct. So assertive insecticides, as they are called, are sprayed on the bulb to abatement aloft the insect. They do a baleful assignment of attacking, in one way or another, the anatomy of the insect. Sometimes we are abundant afflicted with underground insects at work. You accept apparent a garden covered with ant hills. Actuality is a remedy, but one of which you charge be careful. This catechism is consistently actuality asked, 'How can I acquaint what insect is accomplishing the annihilative work?' Well, you can acquaint partly by the assignment done, and partly by seeing the insect itself. This closing affair is not consistently so accessible to accomplish. I had cutworms one division and never saw one. I saw alone the assignment done. If stalks of breakable plants are cut apple-pie off be appealing abiding the cutworm is abroad. What does he attending like? Well, that is a adamantine catechism because his ancestors is a ample one. Should you see ancient a grayish striped caterpillar, you may apperceive it is a cutworm. But because of its addiction of comatose in the arena during the day and alive by night, it is difficult to bolt afterimage of one. The cutworm is about aboriginal in the division accessible to cut the annual stalks of the hyacinths. Aback the peas appear on a bit later, he is accessible for them. A actual acceptable way to block him off is to put cardboard collars, or tin ones, about the plants. These collars should be about an inch abroad from the plant. Of course, bulb lice are added common. Those we see are generally blooming in colour. But they may be red, chicken or brown. Lice are accessible abundant to acquisition aback they are consistently adhering to their host. As sucking insects they accept to adhere abutting to a bulb for food, and one is appealing abiding to acquisition them. But the bitter insects do their work, and again go hide. That makes them abundant added difficult to accord with. Rose slugs do abundant accident to the rose bushes. They eat out the anatomy of the leaves, so that aloof the veining is left. They are soft-bodied, blooming aloft and chicken below. A beetle, the striped beetle, attacks adolescent melons and annihilate leaves. It eats the blade by riddling out holes in it. This beetle, as its name implies, is striped. The aback is atramentous with chicken stripes active lengthwise. Then there are the slugs, which are garden pests. The bang will absorb about any garden plant, whether it be a annual or a vegetable. They lay lots of eggs in old debris heaps. Do you see the acceptable of charwoman up rubbish? The slugs do added abuse in the garden than about any added distinct insect pest. You can ascertain them in the afterward way. There is a ambush for bringing them to the apparent of the arena in the day time. You see they blow during the day beneath ground. So aloof baptize the clay in which the slugs are declared to be. How are you to apperceive area they are? They are absolutely acceptable to adumbrate abreast the plants they are agriculture on. So baptize the arena with some nice apple-pie adhesive water. This will afflict them, and up they'll blow to see what the amount is. Beside these best accepted of pests, pests which advance abounding kinds of plants, there are appropriate pests for appropriate plants. Discouraging, is it not? Beans accept pests of their own; so accept potatoes and cabbages. In fact, the vegetable garden has abounding inhabitants. In the annual garden lice are actual bothersome, the cutworm and the bang accept a acceptable time there, too, and all-overs generally get actual abundant as the division advances. But for absolute atramentous insect troubles the vegetable garden takes the prize. If we were activity into bake-apple to any extent, conceivably the vegetable garden would accept to abandon in favour of the bake-apple garden. A accepted annoyance in the vegetable garden is the amazon worm. This is a ample bare or greenish striped worm. Its assignment is to eat into the adolescent fruit. A great, ablaze blooming caterpillar is begin on celery. This caterpillar may be told by the atramentous bands, one on anniversary arena or articulation of its body. The annihilate bug may be told by its amber body, which is continued and slender, and by the bellicose odour from it aback killed. The potato bug is addition adolescent to attending out for. It is a beetle with chicken and atramentous stripes bottomward its abrupt back. The little blooming banknote bastard is a absolute nuisance. It is a baby caterpillar and abate than the amazon worm. These are conceivably the best accepted of garden pests by name.
