Information on Insect Control 
While we have many different insect pests, we also have 
many controls. We are able to choose a specific chemical for a 
specific insect. Experience, and knowledge of the right mixture 
to use in order to protect the plants and trees, is necessary for 
this control. 
There are many preparations at the present time which are 
easy for homeowners to use. It is important when spraying with 
these preparations to know that the “follow up spray” is as 
necessary as the first spray. This catches the insect after the 
hatching period. 
We have followed the latest findings by entomologists and 
we are equipped to take care of your needs in this respect. In 
our garden store you will find the materials and equipment 
suitable for insect control.
