A great way to combat aphids on trees
Many people like to milk, and not just the people. That ants love it, but not the cow, and what gives them the aphids, they are bred and cared for her. But from out of "concern" affected plants and trees, aphids - a pest! And we have to contend not only with the aphids, but also with breeders - ants that put a lot of forces, populating the garden and a kitchen garden nasty pest.
I'll tell you about a few ways, which at one time advised grandmother.
First
Find an old, no longer desired tissue (natural plus) and tar. Cut it on tape (width 2-3 cm), the length and number of bands will depend on the size of tree trunks.
Put them in a bucket (after the procedure is necessary to throw out, so bring mayonnaise), pour tar. Then tie the tar stripes bottom of the trunk, not tight, but quite tight - no, do not leave gaps.
I recommend to read at your leisure:
Trees that can not be planted near the house - folk omens.
What to put in the hole when planting zucchini - for a large harvest.
Increases the formation of ovaries and accelerates the growth of cucumbers.
Ants can not tolerate the pungent smell of tar and trees with ribbons will get round. Structure of the oily tar, and will long stay (even with frequent rains). In any case, the season will be enough, wrapped trees inspect more often, if the tape strangled bark, replace them with new ones.
Second
Take the masking tape, wrap them to the tree trunk, then brush the adhesive composition against rodents. In the autumn admire the rich "harvest" of ants, you do not need to unwind. Winter tape dries and it comes off easily, and in the spring, repeat this procedure.
Both ways, I experimentally verified in their area and convinced of their effectiveness. I suggest to make sure you and good luck!
