Pests & Insects Control

The purpose of using yellow sticky traps is not only to control harmful insects but is also a way to know what type of insects entering the plantation area before deciding any other control measures

It's easier to prevent insect infestations than to get rid of bugs later. Try and keep your grow room perfectly clean (hospital-like) and don't let it get too humid. Wash your hands and take off your shoes before entering. Don't let house pets into your growing area.

There are four ways to deal with insects:

1. Yellow sticky traps - best used to help prevent problems or in combination with other treatment.
2. Predators - biological warfare at its best.
3. Natural insecticides - safer and often effective.
4. Chemical insecticides - last resort.

There are plenty of choice in each category including well known brand names such as Safer, Virkon, Magic Mist and Pokon. There are also fungicides as well as animal repellents to keep bigger pests and pets away from your garden.

Note: Predatory bugs are beneficials in controlling harmfull pests and insects .The use of Insecticides is always the last resort but always start with the natural and safer one
