Insects. Their numbers are mind-boggling. According to the Smithsonian
Institute there are over 900,000 species identified and the estimate for
the unidentified range from 2 to 30 million. At any time, it is estimated
that there are some 10 quintillion (10,000,000,000,000,000,000) individual
insects alive. The point is that they are everywhere in and around your
garden. From a gardener's point of view there are good insects and bad
ones, and it only takes a few of the bad ones to ruin your plants, the
same plants that you depend on to grow tasty vegetables in your garden.
.
Believe me that when I tell you that it is very frustrating to do all of
the work necessary to prepare a vegetable garden only to see the plants
eaten and destroyed by insects before you have had a chance to enjoy the
harvest. By carefully watching your plants as they grow and mature I have
learned that you can prevent this from becoming a significant problem.
.
First, you must identify them. You need to know what kind of insects you
are looking for. Each type of plant has its' own special enemies. Not
every insect is a problem and in fact some of them are not only harmless
but in fact may help you control the others. So identifying them properly
is very important.
.
Second, take the recommended steps to eliminate them. In the next video I
will talk about insect control methods such as pesticides as well as the
more natural method of using other insects, such as the Praying Mantis, to
help save your plants.
