When you find bugs that don’t belong in your garden, the first option you have is to call an exterminator. But sometimes, the chemicals the exterminator uses are too harsh for your garden to handle. Wouldn’t it be awesome if plants could naturally rid garden pests for you? Well, these plants do.
Marigolds
If you’re having problems with mosquitoes, this is the plant for you.
Basil
This sweet herb can be used in a lot of Italian cooking dishes, but can also be used to keep mosquitoes and house flies away from the kitchen.
Lavender
Ahh, we love the smell of lavender. And it helps to have it around if you’re having issues with moths or fleas.
Dill
Pesky, pesky spiders and mites. What are they good for?! Dill is good for ridding your area of these insects.
