Getting rid of ants on pions
I am sure that many gardeners look forward to the hour when peonies bloom and show all their beauty and fill the air its fragrant smell, but unfortunately this event does not always manage to materialize due to the small pests called ants.
I will not dissemble, ants generally useful creatures begin to breed until the aphids, and when - that happens, it is necessary to apply the most stringent measures - this also applies to ants on peony.
Because of what the ants appear on buds
Basically, all because of the nectar that produce buds, the smell of peonies can feel that emanates from him a note of sugar, which beckons ants.
If they just ate external nectar, then maybe it would be all right, but it is never enough, so they pass the line and start to nibble and gnaw into the bud, because it does not bud and blooms.
