how to make compost by clicking here.<\/a><\/p>\nCompost heaps are used by many gardeners in the UK either at home or in the allotment. If you don’t like the idea of an actual compost heap, then you can use a compost bin, or a compost maker to do the hard work.<\/p>\n

Tip 2 – Understand Crop Rotation for Pest Control in a Small Garden<\/h3>\n
If you like to grow vegetables in your garden, then it is worth understanding the importance of crop rotation. Organic farmers do this with great success. While most home or allotment vegetable gardeners are not dealing with large scale growing of crops, the same sound principles work really well.<\/p>\n
The rule is “never grow the same crop on a piece of lane any more that two years running.” That will help you avoid many pest and especially disease problems. Generally speaking this will help a lot with controlling soil diseases in your vegetable gardens.<\/p>\n
Tip 3 – Make Birds Your Friend as a Means of Pest Control<\/h3>\n
Now some birds are also pests in the garden especially if you like to grow fruits of any kind. However fruit is normally very easy to protect with a net, and that will keep the birds at bay.<\/p>\n
Birds will however work really well at getting rid of insects, slugs etc, so it is worth trying to attract them to your garden. A simply feeder, or a bird house if you prefer, will do the trick and you can then let the birds deal with many of the destructive insects.<\/p>\n
A good birdhouse, grain sprinkled about in early spring, a water-place, are invitations for birds to stay a while in your garden.<\/p>\n
In terms of protecting shrubs and fruit bushes from birds, something as simple as 4 sticks and some soft netting will keep the birds away from those, and protect them.<\/p>\n
Just above we have described the most common pests. They will generally attack almost any plant or shrub. However you also need to be aware that there are certain pests, that will only attack certain plants as well.<\/p>\n
For example greenfly have a particular liking for rose bushes and vegetable gardens that grow beans, potatoes and cabbages also have their own sets of pests.<\/p>\n
With flower gardens the most common pests are garden lice, cutworm and the slug. You also may have to deal with ants.<\/p>\n
With vegetable gardens you do introduce a whole new set of pests. One of the most annoying is the tomato worm. This is a large yellowish or greenish striped worm. It loves nothing better than tucking into the young fruit. Caterpillars will go after celery and cabbage. Cabbage worms are also a major nuisance. <\/p>\n
The potato bug is another pest to look out for. It is a beetle with yellow and black stripes down its crusty back.<\/p>\n
Pest control should be done with the best methods and those that are safe to you, the plants, animals and to the environment. This holds especially true for those with vegetable and organic gardens. The main purpose of growing vegetables organically will be defeated if they become tainted with pest control chemicals. Here are a few long-term maintenance tips to make pest control less damaging and more environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n
Physical Pest Control<\/h3>\n
This may be accomplished through picking grubs off by hand, creating barriers and traps and plugging holes. Snails can be found hiding in damp places under rocks and towards the base of those plants with strap like foliage.<\/p>\n
These are best removed manually and disposed of. It is not the most pleasant of tasks but it is highly effective. You can also remove grubs and caterpillars, and our recommendation is to always wear gardening gloves, as it makes the task less horrible.<\/p>\n
Biological Pest Control<\/h3>\n
Encourage predatory insects such as green lacewings and dragonflies to feed on aphids and other pests that attack your plants. You can do this by placing a shallow bowl of water in the garden.<\/p>\n
Dragonflies especially will hover around water. Bacterial insecticides such as B. thuringiensis could also be used against caterpillars.<\/p>\n
Bug killers such as Provanto do a very good job of general pest control.<\/p>\n
Chemical Pest Control<\/h3>\n
Organic pest control methods can be successful and the ingredients for many of the recipes can be found in the kitchen cupboards.<\/p>\n
If chemical sprays are really necessary, try and find the least-toxic. These include insecticidal soaps, horticultural oils, dehydrating dusts, etc.<\/p>\n
These help spread diatomaceous earth evenly and efficiently. Good for fleas, cockroaches, ants, slugs, termites, aphids, spiders, and more.<\/p>\n

Natural Home Made Pest Control<\/h3>\n
Recipes for alternative pest control include the following:Against Green Aphids and Mites<\/strong> – Mix 1 tablespoon of liquid soap and a cup of vegetable oil. Dilute a teaspoon of this solution in a cup of water and spray on aphids and mites.Against Cockroaches<\/strong> – Dusts of boric acid can be applied to cracks or entry points of these insects. Bay leaves on pantry shelves could also help in warding off these critters.<\/p>\nMake sure that the chemicals you use are made specifically for the insects you are targeting. <\/p>\n
Pest Control for New Seeds & Plants<\/h2>\n
The most common form of protection for seeds or young plants is to use what is called a covered frame. They are very easy to make and a highly effective means of stopping pests attacking younger plants.<\/p>\n
They are basically a wooden box, usually 18-24″ square and about 8″ in depth. This simple wooden structure can then be covered with mesh wire, with glass or with some type of protective cloth.<\/p>\n
Glass or cloth have the added benefits of retaining heat and offering protection against last frosts.<\/p>\n
You can also use cardboard, tin and even paper collars which are wrapped around younger plants, and keep ground pests off your plants.<\/p>\n
