How to protect your garden from destructive insects

A healthy garden adds beauty and freshness to your home, but destructive insects can quickly damage plants, soil, and crops if not managed properly. In Chennai’s warm climate, garden pests such as ants, termites, caterpillars, beetles, and mosquitoes thrive year-round. Protecting your garden requires the right balance of prevention, monitoring, and safe treatment.

Identify Common Garden Pests Early

Early detection is the key to protecting your garden. Signs of insect activity include chewed leaves, yellowing plants, holes in stems, webbing, or ants crawling around plant roots. Regularly inspecting your garden helps catch infestations before they spread.

Different insects cause different types of damage, so identifying the pest correctly allows for more effective control.

Maintain a Clean and Healthy Garden

A well-maintained garden is less attractive to pests. Remove dead leaves, fallen fruits, and weeds regularly, as they provide shelter and breeding areas for insects. Proper watering and soil drainage help prevent moisture buildup that attracts pests.

Healthy plants are naturally more resistant to insect damage.

Use Natural and Preventive Methods

Natural pest control methods such as neem oil sprays, organic compost, and beneficial insects can help manage minor pest problems. These eco-friendly solutions are safe for plants and help reduce the need for chemical treatments.

“Prevention is the most effective way to keep garden pests under control.”
