Penza told how to save houseplants from a tick

Owners of home greenhouses often face an invasion of spider mite. This tiny parasite, whose appearance changes depending on the stage of development and variety, can quickly destroy your favorite flowers. However, there are many effective methods to resist it.

Experienced plant growers advise to adopt a variety of homemade solutions. For example, you can prepare a soap mixture by diluting 200 grams of household soap in a bucket of water (10 liters). Well-proven and garlic infusion: 200 grams of spicy vegetable insist five days in a liter of liquid. Another option is a decoction of onion husks: 200 grams of raw materials per 10 liters of water, which you need to withstand for four to five days.

Other means are being used. Among them are an alcohol emulsion (a glass of alcohol for four glasses of water), a soda shake (50 grams per 10 liters), a vinegar chatter (30 ml of apple cider vinegar per bucket of water) and even hydrogen peroxide (20 ml of 3 percent solution per liter).

In addition to treatments, it is important to create unbearable conditions for the tick. Regular spraying and high humidity in the room will become loyal allies in the fight. Leaves should be periodically washed with cool water, and damaged parts ruthlessly removed. The procedures themselves are better to carry out in the evening, and the compositions for spraying alternate so that the pest does not adapt.
