How To Keep Insects Away From Plants

Gardening : Growing Plants

There is nothing more frustrating than seeing your plants, your pride and joy in the gardening sense, being eaten and attacked by all sorts of insects.

There are so many insects, so much variety, and they are pretty persistent things when they think there is food for them in the shape of your plants.

Given this, what can you do to help to keep them at bay?

Well, the answer is to get some black pepper mixed together with some flour. Use this around the base of plants and it would help to keep away things like ants and earwigs and other little creepy crawlies, including those annoying aphids.
