In his book, the author talks about the most common and well-known pests to all gardeners - phytophagous insects and some animals that damage crops and crops. Considerable attention is paid to describing the characteristics of the lifestyle of pests, their preferences and conditions that make their existence difficult, and identifying weaknesses in their defense. The methods proposed by the author for protecting a plot of land from pests do not violate the natural balance on it; on the contrary, they are designed to maintain this balance through the use of the forces of natural enemies of our pests and the use of biological methods. The book will be of interest to all gardeners, market gardeners, farmers and summer residents interested in obtaining a high-quality and healthy harvest.
