In this video, I share 4 flowers that repel insect pests I'm planting now in my garden, and 1 flower to avoid that I'm never planting in my garden again! These flowers control insects naturally, because their scents are repulsive to various "bad bugs" while still attracting beneficial insects like pollinators into your garden. When interplanted correctly, you can control pests in your garden naturally!
These flowers naturally repel insects through the principle of strategic interplanting flowers with vegetables that are susceptible to the specific pests they repel. The list of insects controlled include: stink bugs, leaf footed bugs, shield bugs, cabbage moths, cabbage white butterflies, cucumber beetles, squash bugs, root knot nematodes, harlequin bugs, leaf hoppers, and more!
