P:Last year, on my recreational plot, I noticed exceptionally numerous clusters of ordinary black ants, both near the plants and on their stems. How to fight them?
O:Ants are very useful insects, but when present in such a mass, they become a nuisance. There are many preparations to combat ants and they are easy to do. You can also lure ants with a mixture of honey, borax and fresh yeast lined up next to the anthill.
A deterrent method is planting tomatoes or tansy in the garden, or sprinkling nettles or wormwood on manure. There are also other pest-repellent plants. It is worth planting plants in several places in the garden that repel ants with their smell, e.g. lavender, marjoram, thyme or peppermint.
P:How to deal with them with hornets and wasps? Last year there were a lot of them on my plot and I'm afraid that when summer comes I will have problems with insects again, I will ask for advice.
O:Attics of houses, attics of sheds and sheds, but also underground tunnels hollowed out by rodents, often provide shelter to insects that scare us with their venomous stings. Hornets - the largest of our domestic wasps - and other smaller species build their nests in these quiet, sheltered from wind and rain hiding places.Made with care from paper pulp, they can reach considerable dimensions.
Established near places where we often spend time and eat meals, they are a source of danger for us. These insects become extremely aggressive towards all intruders just in the case of approaching their nests, and having found a food source nearby, they flock especially in great numbers.Apart from bites, for people allergic to the venom of these wasps, it is always extremely dangerous to be stung by an insect swallowed with food or liquid.Getting rid of nests using home methods carries a high risk for people who try it Therefore, it is worth relying on special services and experienced teams that have the appropriate protective equipment and will safely remove the indicated socket.
See - breeding bees in the middle of the city is possible!
Doctors urge that in the event of a wasp or hornet sting, you should not suck the venom or try to remove the sting on your own.You should go to the nearest medical point as soon as possible. At this time, it is very important to give the bitten person plenty of fluids.
