Natural aphid elimination: Use yellow ribbons to attract ladybugs

Aphids can harm plants in our gardens. These reproducing insects destroy plant leaves, wasting our efforts to keep them in the best possible condition. However, pests can be easily eliminated in a completely natural way.

Aphids are small but very troublesome insects. Everyone who has a garden or orchard knows this well. These insects can significantly harm plants, greatly reducing their ability to yield produce. Additionally, aphids can make certain parts of plants, such as leaves and inedibles.

There are many ways to combat aphids. Some people use conventional sprays—choosing the right substance will help solve the problem. Decoctions mainly based on herbs, baking soda, dish soap, or soap are preferred for those keen on organic cultivation.

However, there is an even simpler way to deal with aphids naturally, without the need for any treatments. So, how can you get rid of aphids without spraying?

We are talking about a light ribbon. According to Filip Roman, a horticulture instructor, this is all it takes to deal with aphids.

Bright yellow ribbons hung on selected plants can attract ladybugs to the spot. The larvae of these insects can eat hundreds of aphids within a day. It's hard to find a better advertisement for this method of combating aphids than its high effectiveness. It may turn out that a bright ribbon is a better solution than spraying.
