Marigold - Natural Garden Pest Controller
Marigolds are easy to grow and its flowers last for a long time. This plant does not smell as good as many flowering plants, however, as a natural insect repellent it does a good job. When planting my vegetable garden, I always make sure to add marigold sporadically within and surrounding the vegetables. Specifically the french golden marigold as it has the most scent. If you choose marigolds for your garden they must be scented to work as a repellent. The scent that is emitted from the plant is known to drive away white flies, aphids, corn earworms, leaf hoppers, Mexican bean leaf beetles, rabbits, squash bugs, thrips, mosquitoes and tomato heartworms. Aside from the fact that it helps you keep a healthy garden without the need to use store bought pesticides. It also adds a nice splash of color in an other wise just green vegetable garden. If you use containers to plant your vegetables, adding a few marigolds will give the same result. Using marigold for pest control cuts down the need to use pesticides in your garden. So, the next time you plant a vegetable garden consider planting some marigolds as well. |
