What pests are sprayed with tansy to fight?

Spraying tansy, which is prepared on the basis of boiled stock, can be used against midge, earth fleas and Colorado potato beetle. It is also perfect for greenhouse whiteflies. It is worth spraying on a regular basis to be able to protect yourself from larger clusters in spring and summer. The strong scent of tansy makes it effective in protecting fruit trees and other cultivated and ornamental plants.

Spraying from tansy, which we prepare on the basis of slurry, can be used in two ways. The first is a method with a gentle dilution, and the second is the direct use of slurry from an adjusted barrel. Spray the mites with undiluted preparation, and to remove ground fleas, their foci should be directly sprinkled with liquid manure. Spraying should also be used in the event of the appearance of greenhouse whiteflies or caterpillars.

Spraying tansy should be done in moderate weather. In hot weather, they are not recommended due to their intensity and the risk of damaging plant tissues.
