"Can an experienced vegetable gardener tell me the best info source for companion gardening available on the Web?"

Topics: pests, gardening, herbs, vegetables

Asked by JungleJaine 39 months ago

Details:

I am starting a vegetable garden and I am trying to use companion gardening as effectively as I can to cut down on chemical usage and therefore consumption. I live in the tropics and therefore this is the best time to grow most northern vegetables but I have been told that if I don't use pesticides and fungicides my garden will fail.

"Do electronic pest (mice) repellents or electronic traps work?" (4 answers)

I tend to fight the field mice every winter, but for some reason this year has been worst than others. I think we've caught over thirty mice since we started with traps around September of last year. We've used snap traps, glue traps, 'no-kill' traps, and finally I took the plunge and put out bait to kill them. The population has went down, but for the past month I've seen an upswing in the population once again. This time, however, the mice are stealing the cheese and peanut butter off of the traps, and the traps aren't sprung. I'm seriously considering an electronic pest repellent (I think that they use ultrasonic waves and must be placed in open aread and in any areas where a mouse may enter. Or the electronic mouse traps that lure the mice in with food but then it shocks the mouse to death. Im willing to put the money in for this purchase, but I need to know if they work. Any ideas, suggesstions, devices that you like or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!
