Tips On Outdoor Pest Control

As a home owner who is equally passionate about tending and maintaining your outdoor

space as you are about having a neat and clean home, it is important that you are proficient with all the necessary pest control tactics that need to be taken.

For starters, you need to have clarity on what is good for your garden and what is not. Some insects actually help the eco-system of your garden by keeping out deadly pests and playing an important role in maintaining the quality of your soil and even ensuring quick growth of certain plants. On the other side, there are some insects can are hazardous to your outdoor area, the trees, the wooden furniture and the overall eco-system.

For those, you need to take the correct pest control measures. Here are some simple insect control tips that help ensure a healthy garden.

1. You need to make sure that the insecticides that you make use of are also safe for those who work and play in the outdoor area. Find yourself pesticides that are made out soap and water solutions and they help get rid of pests such as aphids, pyrethrum etc.

2. You can pull out weeds by hand. Also spraying soapy water, vinegar or alcohol or dousing some hot boiling water are effective non-toxic herbicides.

3. As mentioned earlier, not all insects in your garden are unwanted. For example, everyone knows that bees in fact help flowers. Similarly ladybugs are natural pesticides in your garden since they feed on a number of unwanted insects that ruin your plant life.

4. While many gardeners and home owners are highly reliant on pesticides, over a period of time, many unwanted pests get immune to these pest control tactics and pesticides. At the end of the day, the only life that it harms is us humans.

5. Make sure that you are using eco-friendly and organic pest control methods as much as possible. There are have been studies that suggest that the use of poisonous pesticides also harms the local bird population. Birds tend to eat the same insects. Though one may not notice an immediate difference in the population of birds, but it is said that the eggs that they lay get thinner and thinner thus becoming more susceptible to breaking. The reduction in bird population also means that other creatures that feed on these birds are without food thus making a much larger impact on the ecosystem in general.

Maintaining an outdoor space that is insect free is much more challenging that doing to same for the indoors. The outdoors is prey to much more dynamic environment which needs to be taken utmost care of.
