Different Types of Pest Control
A pest attacks crops in the farm, fruit trees in the backyard, Napier for the animals and all the plants which are beneficial to the humans and their pets. We have some plants which are affected by these pests in which some of them are mature animals like the rodents while some are insects and their life stages. In most cases you will find that attack on the crops is selective in that it is done by some of the pests while some of the pests attack any plant they come across.
It cannot be ignored that pests are becoming a menace each day with them attacking more and more crops to the extent that people are seriously looking for means to ensure that they can secure their crops from this damage. However there are means in which people use to ensure that their farms are pest free some of which are only aimed at reducing the number or the chances of getting an attack. Cultural methods playa a significant role in ensuring that there is no pest build up in the firm and therefore it is a vital method of dealing with the pests.
Crop rotation is one of the cultural methods that is commonly used by people who want to destroy the seasonal pests which generally are known to attack certain crops and hence when another plant is introduced the pests will just die as there are no other crops to attack. Biological method is known to be one of the safest means of dealing with pests and many people are now finding their way to that end so as to ensure proper results.
It entails merely introducing a predator to the pests, and the predator must be friendly to the crops to ensure that the pest infestation is over. However even with the introduction of some science to this field of pest control where predators are created in the lab it still becomes hard to fight with the many pests that are there. One of the methods that people usually use are the ones which are made in the lab, and therefore it becomes essential to ensure that there is good use for the chemicals.
In most cases people use the poisons to eliminate the pests that attack crops on their farms, and therefore it becomes essential to ensure that the pests are well dealt with. Use of chemicals is a method widely used because people can use it to eliminate pest in large plantations, and also it can kill every pest if applied well. At times traps are used to trap and kill the pests especially if there are not many of them.
