How to deal with a bear in the garden

How to deal with a bear in the garden? Mercilessly and persistently! This pest is able to destroy plantings over a large area in a short time. The problem is aggravated by the fact that it moves very quickly. And when a danger arises, it can just fly away. Plus she can swim. Try to catch one.

There are many different methods. Intimidating, poisonous, trapping. All of them work, but have their own characteristics. We will analyze all the errors when using the most common and effective methods.

We scare away the bear

This insect does not like harsh aromas. And most methods suggest spreading smelling substances around the site. Many do so. Then they themselves suffocate from the stench, and the bear quietly crawls underground. Underground, not from above. Therefore, all your heaps outside her drum.

They also advise to dig in all sorts of things at a depth of 7-14 cm, stick branches in the ground. Pfe twice. Bear, smelling an unpleasant odor, just changes the direction. And he continues his harmful work. By the way, at a distance of 30 cm underground, the aroma is no longer felt. Or do you agree to bury a stink every half meter?

In order for the flavor to begin to act, it must be dug with the topsoil throughout the site. Or lay strictly in the moves. Then the bear will stumble upon a repeller and leave the garden.

Tip. If the insect appeared in you, then it also has neighbors. Agree to act simultaneously, otherwise soon the individuals from the neighboring site will crawl to you.

What repels pests? During spring processing, sand slightly moistened with kerosene is scattered all over the site. Then it is dug up with the earth, without leaving a free scrap.

Finely chopped leaves, stems and flowers of marigolds, chrysanthemums. Evenly scattered on the soil and also dig. These smells repel the bear well.

Fish passages or small fish are stuffed into the passages. It is desirable already spoiled, began to stink. Be sure to sprinkle a hole on the ground, otherwise cats and birds will dig up the soil in search of a source of smell.

To 10 liters of water add 3 tbsp. l ammonia. Stir, water the passages and the soil. By the way, they say that this mixture should not fall on plants. Allegedly, she harms them. All nonsense. Such a mixture is even fed weak and frail plantings. Therefore pour, do not be afraid.

There are recommendations to add a handful of onion husks to each well when planting. The method works, but with one refinement. The husk should be wet and smelly. It is advisable to soak it in advance in an unnecessary container, adding spoiled and rotting bulbs. You can spice up all this nuclear mixture with scrolled shoots and old garlic cloves in a meat grinder.

Three days after soaking, this pickle in the bucket will start to stink wildly. Now, a good handful of this thing is added to each well when planted. Medvedka bypasses such surprises. By the way, this is absolutely not harmful to plants. On the contrary, it acts as an analogue of compost, that is, fertilizer.

Some sources recommend sticking alder branches into the soil or pouring spruce or pine fresh needles on the surface. Well, and how many trees do you need to peel so that your attempts reach the bear?

Isn’t it easier to make an infusion and pour it into minks, and abundantly shed the soil on the site with residues? Moreover, this will not harm cultural plantings and scare off ground pests. You will need:

• 2 kg of fresh needles
• 2 kg of fresh alder leaves and branches
• 2 kg of fresh stems and wormwood leaves

All this stuff is thoroughly chopped with secateurs and put in a barrel of 200 liters. Then pour 2 buckets of boiling water and cover with a lid, a film, a piece of slate.After a day, add water to the top of the barrel, mix well. The solution is ready.

It is necessary to pour it without sparing. In the mink, in the beds, next to the plants. The remaining pulp can again be poured with a bucket of boiling water and left now for 3 days. Then add 80 liters of water and water the area again.

We poison the bear

Just do not need about humanity. You just can’t imagine what kind of animal it is. Those who at least once reaped the fruits of her labor, mobilize all their strength and use the maximum available options. Otherwise, trouble.

Now the industry offers many kinds of insecticides and poisons for the extermination of insects. We will not call them here, because not advertising. Just take precautions:

1. Poisoning agents are often mixed with grain or boiled porridge. Try to push the mixture as deep as possible into the mink so that the birds do not eat it.
2. Do not mix in food utensils or in one that you will then use for personal needs. Get a separate bowl for these purposes.
3. Be sure to use protective equipment.

If you are an opponent of using chemistry in your garden, then use one of the recipes of folk wisdom.

1. Egg shells and butter. Finely crush the shell collected during the winter, mix it with vegetable oil. They are laid out in burrows or dug in a dunghill. You can dig near the roots of cultural plantings. They say that after eating such a mixture, the insect dies.
2. Water and oil. It is necessary to make an emulsion of 10 liters of pure water and 6 tbsp. l vegetable oil. That is, mix thoroughly until a homogeneous mixture. If the oil remains floating on the surface, then there will be no sense. The resulting mixture must be quickly poured into visible passages until the oil is separated from the water. According to reviews, the bear suffocates right in the hole, because the mixture does not allow it to breathe.
3. Brown bread and brimstone. The crumb of the most common black bread about the size of a walnut is slightly moistened with clean water. Sulfur is scraped with a knife from 11-13 matches, kneading it along with bread. Then they roll balls the size of a pea and lay the bear in the moves. Top a little sprinkled with earth. The action is the same as in the first recipe.

There are also biological drugs that kill insects. At the same time, they are absolutely safe for people, animals and birds. There are only two of them.

One contains spores of the fungus that causes the bear’s internal disease. If it enters the shell, the fungus sprouts and infects the insect. After some time, it dies.

The second is a wonderful symbiosis of bacteria and a predatory nematode. It infects the insect with bacteria, which lead to decomposition of the insides of the bear.

The drugs are tested, approved and approved for sale in our country. If desired, it is fashionable to find their name on the network. The only drawback of these tools is the observance of strict storage conditions and temperature conditions of use. For example, when the outdoor thermometer reads above + 26 ° C, the means do not work.

Tip. Use these funds not only in the fight against the bear, but also with other insects in your garden. They work great on many pests.

Bait the bear

Someone will say - why? To then kill. Sometimes mechanical methods of disposal are most effective. But they are the most labor intensive.

In September, several holes are dug in the garden. 40 by 40 by 40 cm. A good fat manure is put there, sprinkled with earth. They put a beacon and return after a steady frost of -10 ° С. Find a bookmark, scatter all the manure. And they are surprised at the number of cubs that climbed for the winter. There is no need to kill them, frost will do its job for sure.

Dung will help to collect the bear in the spring. Just in April you need to put small piles around the garden. Once every 5 days you need to choose a bear from manure and destroy them. Heaps can be used until July 12th. After this, insects rarely creep to the surface.

Tip.In hot weather, pour manure with plain water. Moisture and heat attract the bear.

On beds in several places, tanks with a narrow neck are dug up. Inside pour some beer mixed with honey or jam. Compote will do. It is necessary to make sure that the neck is slightly below ground level, but does not fall asleep to it. You can cover with a piece of slate or a bunch of grass on top (do not plug!). Once every three days you need to pull out the insects trapped in the trap and kill them. If necessary, change the bait.

The narrow neck of the vessel is necessary so that the bear could not fly back.

Tip. If for any reason you are afraid to kill a bear or it is not pleasant for you, then add an insecticide to the bait. Then you just have to throw away the cold corpses. True, those who watched the work of the bear in their garden chop or trample it with healthy frenzy.

The next method is difficult to call bait. But it helps to drive the bear to the surface. And there you just catch it, have time! To do this, prepare a slightly alkaline solution. No, we don’t need the burning alkali itself. For 10 liters of pure water, it will be enough to add one of the ingredients in the amount of 50 g:

• laundry soap
• dishwashing liquid
• inexpensive washing powder

All this is thoroughly mixed, then poured into the visible passage. For each mink, 400-600 ml of liquid is enough. Medvedka strongly dislikes such interference in personal space. They say that she jumps out quite vividly from the ground after such a “treat”. You just have to catch the insect and destroy.

Kerosene added to water has the same effect.

Interesting method

Many have often noticed that in their clean and tidy garden the bears are teeming. And the neighbors, where the forest stands and almost wolves roam, have no insects. It turns out there is such a trend. And it is due to the fact that the bear loves the soil, which is well warmed up by the sun. And if on a section of weeds 2 meters high, what kind of heating can we talk about?

Try using this feature of the insect against it. No, you won’t have to plant stormy thickets of weed in the garden. But to mulch the beds with a thick layer - why not? 12-14 cm of mulch - and under it will always be cool, even in the heat. According to reviews, the method helps in the fight with the bear 100%. True, you have to work hard to cover the entire soil with a thick carpet. But the benefit will be threefold:

• the bear will leave forever
• there will be no weeds at all
• have to be watered much less often

Some plantings can be protected from the penetration of the bear. To do this, use any improvised material that the insect cannot bite through. It can be plastic from bottles, ondulin, slate, boards, tin sheets. They are dug along the perimeter of the beds to a depth of 20 cm. The fence should rise at least 4 cm above the surface of the soil. The insect will not guess to crawl the obstacle from above, and under the ground at this depth it does not move.

Of course, the method is not suitable if you have 30 acres of landings. But especially valuable plants can be saved.

How to deal with a bear in the garden? By any means. And the fight must begin as soon as possible. Otherwise, the insect will breed and it will be easier for you to leave the site than to wage war with the bear.
