If you are enjoying a green lush garden around your house, then you probably have uninvited guests lurking around— pests.
Although there are many pesticides available in the market, you may not want to spray them on your beautiful plants & flowers.
This article provides practical ways to get rid of unwanted pests naturally.
1. Snails First
Some of the most destructive creatures are found in your backyard. Most people say to track down the habitats of the snails, pour salt on them. However, this process can be time-consuming and inhumane.
But, don’t worry, there is a proven way to free your garden from the slime trails.
Step 1: Bury a small bowl in the ground, near your plants.
Step 2: Fill your bowl with beer.
Step 3: Leave the bowl overnight, and clear it in the morning.
How does it work? The snails are attracted to the smell of beer. So, they’ll drink the beer and drown nearby, and you can collect the snails and set them free in an open location.
However, you can save yourself from the hassle by hiring eco-friendly pest control specialists to deal with these creatures.

Moles, voles, ground squirrels, and other types of rodents can tear up the garden overnight. To prevent them from invading your garden, follow these simple steps:

However, this method may not always work; in such a situation, you must hire a company for the best pest control in Sydney to get rid of pests in your garden.
