Get rid of bugs:

 You have bugs all over your crops and do not know what to do....Well here is an idea that works for me.


Bugs like yellow, do not know why, but they do.


So, get a board about half of A4 size. The best is thick cardboard or light plywood. You could use a yellow index card or some form of plastic ( frisbee )


Paint it as bright yellow as you can ( water proof paint )


Now you need some sort of sticky substance: Vaseline, honey, old engine oil or a non-drying glue like Tanglefoot ( stuff you paint on trees to stop bugs crawling up the trunks).


Just paint this on your board and hang it in among your plants, you will be surprised how many bugs you will catch


As the boards start to be covered with bugs.Clean off your trap and reapply your sticky stuff.
