That's really, really, really surprised!

Memories of summer pores of my childhood in a village inextricably linked to the gathering... Colorado beetles from potatoes. We, of course, periodically fought with them with the help of chemicals. But whether the chemicals over time forged suppliers, or bugs to get used to it so fast that repeated treatments often do not give the desired effect. We had to collect their handles these slippery and nasty bugs with foliage.

Gathering these pests in the jars and their subsequent destruction was some hateful tradition. Peculiar smell with hand wash was very difficult. Here and now, typing these lines, in memory pops up that nasty "flavor" of beetles and disgusted.

How many years no one can come up with such a tool, using which it was possible to forget about the Colorado potato beetles forever. Although…

Funds are, but for some reason it is only used for etching of various seeds before planting. And it means - potassium permanganate (so called by the people), its scientific name - "potassium permanganate", and standing in a pharmacy mere pennies.

Familiar Summer Resident said that four years ago a neighbor to testify shared with her this life hacking to get rid of Colorado beetles. Some of his friends during the use of potassium permanganate for the cucumber seeds, tomatoes, peppers and the like, thought that potassium permanganate can try to apply and potatoes. This is a weak solution of potato tubers are soaked for 24 hours before planting. Wonderful idea! For summer resident it was the first season without the Colorado beetle and without the use of chemicals.

By word of mouth resounded over the years for other gardeners and reviews should be noted that great. All in one voice insists that they forgot about the existence of Colorado beetles with little or no chemicals. Well, as without chemicals... I mean those chemicals that are sprayed potato tops, and which can be accumulated in the tubers. And there is potassium permanganate is very cheap and wonderful effect on him.

And how much time and money people spend on collecting "harvest" beetles or herbs chemistry each year! I when I think that we could enjoy life, youth, instead of agonizing in the garden under the scorching sun ...
