What must be done to eliminate ants

Ants are very annoying, so use these two methods to solve it

1. Cut tobacco water spray kill

Boil the cut tobacco or chopped tobacco in water for about 1 hour until it is dark brown, then add water to dilute it into light brown, cool it and pour it into the flowerpot

You can also spray diluted cut tobacco water on the stems and leaves of the plant once every 7-10 days. After 2-3 times, there will be no ants in the flowerpot

2. Chemical spraying

Spray the soil surface of the pot and around the flowerpot with mirex. Pay attention not to spray it on the flowers and leaves. Generally, spray it once every five days for five consecutive times to control the harm of ants

What must be done to eliminate earthworms

Many flower friends believe that raising earthworms in flower pots can loosen the soil and let the pot soil breathe. However, in fact, the soil nutrients of potted plants are limited and there is not enough space for activities. Climbing earthworms will only compete for nutrients and erode the roots. There are hundreds of harm but no benefit. Therefore, earthworms in pots must be eliminated

1. Clear water immersion Basin

Earthworms are afraid of boredom. Lack of oxygen will make them climb the excavated surface. So you can soak the flowerpot in a clear water basin. The water surface is not over the basin soil. After about an hour, the earthworms will climb out of the water surface. This method is simple and effective, but it is not suitable for flowers with sensitive roots and no moisture tolerance, such as peony, cyclamen, cactus, triangular plum, etc

2. Garlic water spray kill

Garlic has a strong insect repellent and bactericidal effect. First, pour the basin soil thoroughly at one time, find 3 ~ 4 cloves of garlic, mash it and add water to make it into garlic water to water the flowers. Earthworms will climb the excavated surface every other period of time. At this time, clamp it with tweezers to eliminate it

3. Chemical spraying

If there are many earthworms, the soil can be irrigated with dichlorvos emulsion diluted 1000 times, once every 7 days, 2 ~ 3 times

What must be done to eliminate snails

The hot and humid climate in summer is very suitable for snail breeding. If you find several gaps and holes on the flowers and leaves for no reason, like being bitten by insects, you should check whether there are snails under or on the edge of the flowerpot. There are several ways to eliminate snails:

1. Sprinkle salt to eliminate

First clean up the dead grass and leaves on the surface of the basin soil, and then sprinkle a layer of salt on it. Snails are most afraid of salt. After a period of time, they will dehydrate and die. They can also be replaced by quicklime or plant ash

2. Residual tea spraying

If the number of snails is small, first catch the snails directly with tweezers, and then put the remaining tea into the water for 1 ~ 2 days. After slight fermentation, spray it around the flower pot, which can play a preventive role

3. Chemical spraying

If there are a large number of snails, you can buy some cochlear killing spirit or mosquito repellent and spray it with water every 10 days or so for 3-5 consecutive times

What must be done to eliminate centipedes

If the flowerpots placed in the yard or on the balcony on the first floor are too dense, resulting in poor ventilation and light transmittance, centipedes will breed. Centipedes like a humid and dark environment. The following three methods can be used to eliminate centipedes:

1. Insecticide spraying

If you find a large centipede in the flower pot, you can directly find a stick to kill it. For a large number of small centipedes with frequent activities, you can use the aerosol insecticide used to kill mosquitoes and flies at home and spray it on the centipede several times

2. Sprinkle tea bran powder

You can sprinkle some tea bran powder on the surface of the basin soil and water it again. Tea saponin in tea bran can kill young centipedes and drive away large centipedes. Tea bran is also a natural high-quality organic fertilizer, but it should be noted that tea bran is soluble in water and has a certain alkalinity. It is best not to use flowers that like acidity

3. Chemical spraying

Agricultural avermectin or baichongling, diluted with water, can also kill centipede larvae and drive out large centipedes. It can also destroy other pests at the same time. It has little toxicity and is suitable for household use

What must be done to eliminate cockroaches

Flower friends should not think that cockroaches will only appear in the corner of the wall, gap, kitchen corner and other places that are not noticed. In fact, there are cockroaches in the flower pot, one of which is only hidden in the soil. When they are found, the flower will be destroyed long ago. There are three tips for killing cockroaches:

1. Cockroach house

Put a cockroach house around the flowerpot, which can suck in cockroaches, ants and other insects and stick them, but clean them at intervals. Cockroaches need a lot of water to survive. Flower friends must pour out the accumulated water in the basin

2. Chemical spraying

Use 2% trichlorfon or dichlorvos solution, mix it in the crumpled steamed bread and other foods according to the ratio of 1:3, and sprinkle it on the surface of the flower pot at night, which can effectively kill cockroaches
