- Pull out any weak plants that attract insects and dispose of them away from the horticulture area
- Build healthy organic soil – Natural composting methods, mulching and top-dressing your soil with compost or natural fertilizer is the best way to develop strong vigorous plants
- Seaweed sprays -Seaweed contains trace elements such as iron, zinc, calcium, sculpture and magnesium, which promote healthy development in plants and gives them the strength to withstand disease.
- Water foliage early so foliage will be dry for most of the day. Wet foliage encourages insect and fungal damage to your plants.
- Dis-infect. If you’ve been working with infested plants, clean your tools before moving on to other horticulture areas. This will reduce the speed of invading insects.
