Any gardener in this life had to fight the Colorado potato beetle. And most often it meets people at potato cultivation. But how to fight and save the whole crop is not everyone can.
So it turns out that the female beetles lay their eggs on the bottom side of the leaf. It was only five - seventeen days larvae appear. They are the four ages. First - eat the lower part of the leaves. But the second can eat all pulp sheet. A third and fourth age is usually away on the neighboring bushes potatoes. And only two - three weeks beginning to pupate.
The problem is that the Colorado potato beetle has no enemies, so get rid of them is very difficult. But as people live in the modern world, scientists have long created a variety of chemicals to deal with them. There is no need for people to go and collect beetles hand from the bushes. Many of course still hold such a process, but if it is good to speculate there was little efficiency. But these insects are very cunning! Because as soon as they begin to feel danger, they can just pretend to be dead and fall from the bush alone. And experience has shown that this scheme works very well. Therefore, a person will never be able to remove them manually. And thus there will be new larvae and the cycle will continue.
There are even some books, where even describe such a way that a person can teach poultry feed among the larvae of this beetle. But this way of 100% of the results also did not give the grower.
Most good method in this case would be if the person next to potatoes planted those plants that their smell will scare the Colorado potato beetle. But it also does not help to get rid completely of insects. Those plants that will be planted next to a demand for constant grooming. Therefore, in this case, one should resort to chemicals. They can be purchased at any specialty store. But the gardener should know that the beetles quickly develop immunity to chemicals.
It should therefore be alternated to non-addictive. Be sure to read the instructions necessary to the composition of the structure of the drug. Because systemic insecticides are absorbed into the plant itself and thus becomes inedible. It is best suited for combat means "Commander." He is able to save people, not only from the Colorado potato beetle, but also from other pests. Good that affects the nervous system of insects and thereby causes paralysis. Enough to get the result of three days.
But in order to diversify the use of drugs and not addictive beetles, you can use the "Spark Triple Effect". This is a very powerful drug. Therefore, its result is not enough for more than two hours. In order to never see in their area Colorado beetles, gardener may choose to alternate and different chemicals.
Thus, it is important to know that a person can not get rid of the pests on the site. But he can always cut their number. Every person has the right to use their own way to fight. He can do old methods or resort to more modern chemical drugs. But it is important to remember that each person is important result, not the method. When a person removes the manual, it is not able to notice all. And thus removes only half. But when a person uses chemicals, then it holds a portion completely. And the result is much better. Of course we have to use them constantly, because such an effect can not last forever, and there will be new, which will have to fight again.
