How to prevent aphids in potted plants in spring

1. Prevention methods

1. You can use a brightly colored yellow wooden board and stick a piece of yellow paper on it. Then apply a thick layer of butter on it and bury the board on the edge of the plant. This will attract aphids and make them stick to the panel.

2. You can also put white wine in a spray bottle and spray it directly where you encounter pests. Note that it is best to choose white wine with a higher concentration, generally 52 degrees. Just spray it twice a day, in the morning and afternoon, and do this for three consecutive days.

3. The laundry detergent at home can also be used for prevention and treatment. Add some water appropriately. If you don’t mind the trouble, adding a little urea will have a better effect. You can choose to do it in the evening every day, and you will see obvious results after spraying it for two or three days.

4. Aphids are afraid of the pungent smell of garlic, so you can mash the garlic into a paste, leaving the juice and add one liter of water to one hundred grams. Then spray the entire plant to keep the aphids away.

5. Make juice from the leeks at home, add some water and use it directly to spray on the plants, which can also effectively remove the invasion of aphids.
