Everything you need to know about the popular methods of dealing with Medvedka

Medvedka's favorite treats are everything that we grow every season: potatoes, carrots, and other vegetables. However, she is extremely gluttonous, and she absolutely doesn’t care about how much work and effort we put into country affairs.

With the help of huge claws Medvedka snatches underground holes sometimes up to a meter deep. The insect loves the heat of the sun and prefers to settle closer to the soil surface.

By the beginning of summer, she is already laying eggs, of which there are always at least a few thousand. In order to ensure the comfort of her children, she cuts off parts of garden plants - this is how she creates the shady coolness of young cubs.

I would like to praise the insect for so strong maternal feelings, but only the language does not turn: it’s a shame to the summer resident to lose the crop grown with his own hands. Let's look at how to get rid of medvedki folk remedies?

How to deal with it?

Thousands of holders of a horticultural farm annually turn to new methods of dealing with Medvedka folk remedies.

There are several most effective ideas:

  1. Installation of fences. It happens that the bear is wielding at a nearby site, and the gardener knows this. In order to prevent the appearance of an insect on its land, it is recommended to drive small tin plates into the soil.
    Above the ground they should rise at a height of 45 cmand go inside to a depth of 55 centimeters. The site should be protected from all sides.
  2. Hoisting potholes. Its ideal depth is 50 cm, length is around the entire perimeter of the villa. In the ditch you need to pour fine glass, gravel, pieces of brick. Through them, the pest will not move.
  3. Mink dressing with kerosene. It will take 0.1 liters of kerosene and 10 liters of water. Liquid should be mixed, and then pour a half spoons into the dug mink, where the bear is sheltering.
    To make the procedure for the night. Along with this - sprinkle sand between rowsmixed with kerosene (one big spoonful of liquid for a bucket of sand).
  4. Filling mink diluted in water with soap and powder. For the implementation of this folk remedy from the bear, we need a bucket of water, soap - 10 grams, powder - 50 grams.
    Half a liter of fluid - in each well. After a couple of minutes, Medvedka will come out of the ground in horror. And if it does not come out, it will die at a depth.
  5. Irritation of pest coniferous smell. This popular way of dealing with a Medvedka is relevant due to the fact that a Medvedka does not tolerate the aroma of needles, it will be appropriate to take advantage of this. It is necessary to dig a hole near the vegetable ridges and pour small needles into them. It does not hurt to fill it and burrows.

  6. Wrapping plants with a damp cloth. Before planting tomatoes and sweet peppers in the ground, the stalks should be wrapped with a cloth dipped in water. Tpockmark should be like underground and above its surface. Do not use too rough and thick fabric.
  7. If the cloth is not moistened with plain water, and soapy, the bear will not like it twice. The guarantee that it does not touch the tomatoes and peppers is very high.
  8. Scaring off pests with onions and garlic. Having prepared a hole for planting seed in it, it is necessary to lay a hole around (3 cm deep). In it put the remaining peel after peeling the onion, add sand, cover with earth.
    A little different should do with garlic: in all the pits along with the seeds put on one slice of peeled garlic. The sharp smells of these vegetables do not like Medvedka.
  9. Digging under the ground fish heads. This method is not pleasant, but it gives a good effect. Once for the whole summer season, it is necessary to bury on your plot of fish heads. You should not immerse them in great depth, 30 cm will be enough.
  10. The destruction of the bear with calcium carbide. This substance must be placed in the mink pest - 5 grams each. After that, slightly tamp the soil. When it starts to rain or groundwater begins to stand out, a chemical reaction will occur - acetylene will be released from the carbide, which will poison the bear.
    If the year was dry or the soil in the area is not rich in groundwater, it is recommended to water the ground after laying the carbide in the hole.
  11. The destruction of eggs. Medvedka lays eggs in late spring or early summer. At this time, you should not be lazy and walk with a shovel at least where the insect was found. When interacting with oxygen, the eggs die.

Bait

Medvedku easy lure that she likes.

The pest does not know that the bait will be detrimental to it, because it contains poison.

One variation of such a trick. is the use of malathion in the amount of 50 grams.

You will also need a kilo of cooked bran or pea grains and 30 ml of vegetable oil. The mixture is buried underground.

Bait containing karbofos, can cause poisoning of livestock and poultry, so it is impossible to process the surface of the earth and, especially, plants with it.

Another way to lure a bear is to feed a bear with eggshells, which the insect considers a delicacy. The shell must first be crushed to a powdery state..

Add unrefined vegetable oil. Put a little mixture in each hole when planting along with vegetable seeds. If the insect attacked after landing, then fill the small furrows along the length of the furrow near the holes (about 40 mm deep). Medvedka will devour the oil powder and die.

You can purchase ready-made baits:

  • "Phenaxine Plus";
  • "Thunder";
  • Zolon;
  • Medvetoks;
  • Bankol;
  • "Cuts";
  • "Teddy bear".

All these drugs are poisonous, but research and practical experience has shown that their negative impact does not apply to poultry and bees. but Be careful with cows, rabbits and sheep.

Scarers

In addition to folk methods of dealing with pest eating potatoes and tomatoes, there are others. For example, the use of special repellents.

They can be:

  • chemical;
  • electric;
  • ultrasound.

Chemicals are differently called fumigators.. The basis of their action is the influence of a certain chemical substance or a complex of substances on a bear.

Electric affect pest discharge current. Mosquitoes and midges are most often destroyed by them, but these repellers are also used to remove bears.

Ultrasonic agents against the bear are not yet developed., but gardeners use similar mole repellents and confirm the excellent effect of these devices on the bears.

Ultrasound propagates vibrational waves around itself for a considerable distance. This is very worried about the bear, and she is in a hurry leaving the familiar place. Ten days is enough to powerful device scared off the pest (for example, "Tornado OZV.02").

Solar powered

Another effective mole and bear repeller is sunny. The solar-powered bear repeller also distributes sound that pests do not like. One of the reputed brands is Solar.

Its advantages are obvious:

  1. Bears will never get used to the signal, as it constantly fluctuates.
  2. The device glows in the dark.
  3. The battery is recharged not only from the sun, but also from the light of the moon.

Traps

As traps for pests with claws, you can use the grooves filled with manure. They break out to a depth of 50 cm and have the same width. Manure in them should be tamped very tightly.

Medvedka, looking for a place to winter, goes to warm dung and buries it. With the onset of cold weather, closer to December, the groove needs to be dug and scatter the fertilizer on the site. Frozen, Medvedka die.

You can use manure in May, when the insect starts laying eggs. Having placed a few heaps in the country, you can expect the pest to crawl into them to breed. Periodically heaps need to be gutted.

The simplest trap for a bear is to dig a few cans of water into the ground in the spring. At night, several bear cubs will end up in water captivity.

This photo clearly shows the trap for the bear:

So, what main theses can be distinguished from the read:

  1. Medvedka - the enemy of potatoes and tomatoes.
  2. The pest does not make smells of onions, garlic.
  3. Poisons that kill the bear can be dangerous for pets.
  4. A variety of repellers can permanently take the insect from the garden.
  5. Pest eggs are laid in May, and Medvedka is trying to find a warm haven, for example, a dung heap.
