Pest Control

We finished planting our organic vegetable garden this week!

Fingers crossed that it gets enough sunlight and we'll be able to enjoy home grown veggies this summer. Does anyone have any all-natural tips to keep insects away? http://www.oldtownhome.com/2011/5/27/Our-Org...

    Looks like you are going to have some very pampered veggies! Garlic- or hot-pepper based sprays have long been popular with organic gardeners. Also key is attracting beneficial insects, which will take on the pests. Since you have a pretty small area, floating row covers may also be effective.

    Good luck with this! I agree with Douglas, the plants look very content!

    Believe it or not, you can order lady bugs thru the mail. Perhaps a bit of overkill, but they worked for me a couple of years ago...
