Getting rid of the larvae of click beetles (wireworms) on your garden. Making the bait

Often on tubers of potatoes, you can see the hole, it moves wireworms, the larvae of click beetles. He makes moves and crawls on, and nothing it does not stop on the way. But to guard against wireworms, it is necessary to know the effective control measures.

How to deal with wireworm

The method of protection against wireworms, there are many, but I liked the following method that I applied last year. This control measure is effective for carrot.

We need to take a potato tuber (not rotten), cut it in half. Then plug in each half of the stick about the length of 30-35 cm. Next dig a hole to a depth of 10 cm. Place the tuber in the bottom of the pit and covered with soil. To do a bit of bait at a distance of 1 m from each other. You must wait a few days until wireworms "peck" on the trap.

When the time comes to dig a potato halves, you need to take a shovel and dig the tubers to a greater depth than planted. When digging halves you will see how many gathered there larvae of click beetles. Once collected all the tubers are wireworm, you must clear them from the wireworm and place all the larvae in the bucket, to get rid of them, pouring vinegar or to put salt (salt per 1 liter water). Soon the larvae will make no sign.

Halves tubers again buried in the ground, and so continue until all the larvae will come from the garden.

Thus, it is possible to get rid of wireworms a short period of time from the plot.
