Have you ever stayed in a hotel and woke up with severe itching and red marks on your body? Most probably, it is bed bugs that are to be blamed for this. They get their name from their habit of making beds their home and feeding on humans while they sleep. I was really amazed to find out that bed bugs feed only on blood and require regular feedings to survive.
This is what I asked the first time a friend told me about them! Aphids are tiny insects, less than ¼ inches in length. They are also known as plant lice. Apart from yellow, you may find aphids in light green, black, brown, and gray. You will most commonly find them on the backs of leaves, based on the stems, on fruits and flower buds. Sometimes they can also get to the roots depending on the species of aphids. They can find their way into any garden and even indoor ones.
A Hedge Trimmer is a machine that is helpful in trimming shrubs, bushes and of course hedges in your garden. There are different kinds of hedge trimmers available in the market such as electric hedge trimmers, battery powered trimmers and gas powered hedge trimmers.
Who wants their lawn to be filled with pests, grubs and bugs and ruin the beauty of their lawn and also ruin the plants in there? Nobody, I can think of. Lawns and gardens are a very important part of keeping a house well-maintained and aesthetic. A good and well kept lawn will make or break the look of your entire house and thus it is of utmost necessity that you keep your green land prim and proper and also keep pests at bay so that the garden is not only beautiful to look at but also healthy from the inside.
Remember the times when every summer, it is time to pack all your woolens to the loft or the attic where they will sit till the nippy air says hello? It was a tradition in the family to wrap in a piece of the cedar bark to the bag containing the sweaters and other warm clothing until it was time to get them out again. I, of course, realized the importance of this ritual much later when I was dreading (read suffering) insects in my garden. Does cedar actually repel bugs?
