The fight against pests can continue for a long time, but not all summer residents want to use chemicals.

But it is not necessary to use them at all, since a powerful insecticide and acaricide is already growing in your garden.

We are talking about potato and tomato tops, which can help deal with insects.

Let us pay attention to the comments of the expert of the online publication Belnovosti and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh.

How to use potato and tomato tops against pests?

Take 4 kg of fresh tomato tops, chop them and pour in 10 liters of water, then boil for 30 minutes. Cool, strain again into a container and stir in a ratio of 1:3.

To make an infusion from potato tops, you need to take 1.2 kg of greens, pour a bucket of warm water over it and leave it to infuse for several hours.

Then all that remains is to simply spray the plants.
