You should get rid of insects in the garden if there are too many of them.
In this case, aphids can harm your plants.
How to get rid of aphids manually
The easiest way to get rid of aphids in the garden is to crush the insects with your fingers.
Since aphids are very small and delicate, this will not be difficult for you to do.
However, this method probably will not help eliminate insects 100%.
Check for aphids every couple of days. This is necessary so that the plant can recover.
How to get rid of aphids using different means
You can also use a spray with plain water. A strong jet of water can destroy these small insects.
Once an aphid is knocked off a plant, it rarely climbs back.
In addition to plain water, you can use insecticidal soap or horticultural oil.
These products effectively control pests in the garden.
It is worth using this method regularly so that the aphids do not have time to reproduce.
Repeat the procedures until the insects completely disappear.
Don't forget to spray not only the top, but also the underside of the leaves.
How to prevent aphids
To prevent large numbers of aphids from entering your garden, it is important to inspect your plants regularly.
Also, remove weeds from your garden.
You can also plant flowers such as calendula, marigolds, and dill next to the plants.
The fact is that the smell of these plants repels insect pests from the garden.
