SUMMER IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER
Prepare your garden for the summer with a few smart tips. Nice weather brings the desire to enjoy the summer garden. However, between barbecues and an evening under the stars, there are little enemies that can spoil everything: mosquitoes. That is why it is important to prepare everything in advance!
There are several ways to fight mosquitoes.
- First of all, you can plant aromatic herbs such as lemongrass, lavender and basil, which are naturally repellent to these pesky insects.
- Then, an original and natural idea is to mount a bat house made of pine wood and designed to provide a safe and cosy refuge on trees, outside walls or in an area of your summer garden. Bats play an important role in the ecosystem as insectivores and help control insect populations such as mosquitoes and flies.
- In addition to this, there are sprays and candles on sale that emit substances to keep mosquitoes away. You can also opt for a natural spray repellent that not only has a pleasant scent but also keeps insects away.
- Last but not least, a practical and inexpensive solution is to create natural mosquito repellents at home with lemon, rosemary and lemongrass.
DECORATING THE GARDEN
Outdoor pots are perfect for adding a touch of colour and liveliness. You can choose from different materials such as terracotta, plastic or resin, and from a variety of shapes and sizes. After that, fill them with flowering plants or shrubs to create green corners that will be lovely to your eyes.
Remind that summer is also the time to water your plants regularly, especially during the hottest days. An automatic watering system can be a great ally in keeping your garden fresh and lush.
DECORATIVE STONES FOR FLOWERBEDS
Decorative flower bed stones not only add a touch of elegance to your garden, they also help maintain order in flower beds.
