I have found, if we
tolerate
a few pests, the
beneficial
predators
will take care of the
majority of the pests.
-
Birds
will eat a lot of insects.
-
If we use broad spectrum
pesticides, we kill the
beneficial insects as well
as the target pest.
Who will pollinate the
flowers, so we get fruit,
if we kill all the
bees?
-
Birds, which eat the
killed insects, may be
harmed.
Who will eat the aphids,
if we kill all the
predators?
-
When we knock out all of
nature's defenses, the pest
outbreaks become worse
than before.
|
Natural Predators will
control insect pests, if we
obey the laws of Nature.

Plants require Sunshine,
Water and nutrients.
-
Roots
carry nutrients to the
plant via water.
-
Compacted roots
cannot grow well and take
up nutrients efficiently.
-
When
plants die,
they decay and turn into
nutrients.
-
Decayed plant material is
organic matter,
which is food for plants.
-
Organic matter helps soil
retain
moisture.
-
Organic material makes the
soil loose
so roots thrive.
-
Weeds are easier to pull
from soil that's full of
organic matter.
-
Soil which does not
receive enough organic
matter, will
run out of nutrients,
become compacted and dry
out faster.
-
Mulch generously
with Grass clippings,
Straw, Bark, Wood Chips,
Corn meal, Cocoa Bean
Hulls, Peat.
