The mole cricket is one of the most dangerous garden pests.
This insect is capable of gnawing through roots and even destroying future crops.
Together with the expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , we figure out which folk remedy will help get rid of it.
Eggshell "Dessert"
All you need to get rid of the pest is an eggshell.
In order for the treat for the mole cricket to work, the shell must first be crushed. Vegetable oil will help attract the pest's attention to the treat.
It is best to use unrefined oil so that the mole cricket will smell the treat as quickly as possible and come to feast on it. After the insect eats the shell, it will die because it will not be able to digest it.
At the same time, the shell, rich in calcium, will bring double benefit to your garden. What the mole cricket does not eat will become an excellent fertilizer for the garden.
