A larval phase of any insect is known as the maggot. These things usually feed on the dead tissues of living organisms. It has both good and bad associated with it. In most medical industries it is used to make living things cure from their respective diseases. This form of therapy is known as maggot therapy. But it is also accepts a large no of living things too. Only if they are in controlled state they are helpful to the society in other cases they form the killer for the society.
Why maggot is harmful?
The reason for the question is quiet simple. In large cases of the maggots, form a threat to the pets and the nearby farm animals. This largely mentions the sheep. This is a big fact for the farmers to worry as they face this as a major problem. This is because most of the farmers depend upon the sheep for their source of income. If something is bothering it them it is bothering their whole economy. If the maggot attack is untreated then it would even result in the death of the cattle.
Ways to treat?
The only remedy to this problem is to go in for the maggot pest control. This is nothing but spray of pest control fluids that are more effective in controlling the growth and attack of the maggots. These attack the maggots in two ways. One is that it would directly cause a paralysis in the maggot. The other is that it would restrict their growing area. This is found to have a high effect over the maggots. This has formed a major boon for the farmers in fighting the diseases and effects caused by the maggots. They are hundred percent safe to use and will not cause any effect to the crop or the pest. So usage of this is recommended by many of the people.
Usage manual:
The ways to use the maggot control is very simple. The procedures main aim is to spray it at proper intervals and proper amount of the spray has to be done. If improper procedures are followed it would result in the spoilage of the crop. For this reason alone the caution is taken in these matters. The amount of this must be used in proper proportions. There is no standard proportion for this. It varies for each and every brand. But everything works great on the crops and fights best on the maggot.

The main problem associated with the cabbage cultivation and selling is the diseases it gets and the pests which disturb them. The black stem is the most common disease found in the cabbage. This disease is caused by a fungus. This also causes lesions on the walls of the cabbage along with sunken of the stem. The other major and most common problem faced is by the pests and worms. There are three types of worms that cause a destructive effect on the plant. They are imported cabbage worm, cabbage web worm and cut worm. These worms come and form on the developing cabbages as larva and develop here into a worm and then eat the cabbages. Other major infector is the cabbage fly. They usually attack the root part of the plant. There are also snakes that are seen in these areas. They are known as the cabbage snake. There is also a wide variety of attack over the cabbage family. The major attackers are only said here. There are 127 diseases that are possibly felt on the cabbage. And there are 12719 species of insect that will feed on the cabbage and are capable of causing damage to the plant. There are more than ten million families which feed only on the amount earned from the cabbage farming and selling. These pests would cause a major disaster if the problem is not seen.
Remedy:
The only remedy for this problem is to go in for the pest control treatments. These pest control sprays are more specific in their action. So the spray that to be used has to deal with all their problems and also must take care of the factor of not harming the plants. So a combinational usage of the pest control sprays is used.

Earwig is a small insect which is easily identifiable by its claws like rear part. These claws like structure are extremely innocuous and are called pincers. Even though they are harmless to us, they are much of a nuisance to the plants and the herbs that we grow in our backyard. The problem with the earwig is that it reproduces once in every twelve months and if favorable conditions prevail, they can produce up to 6o offspring. If you ever want to exterminate them from your garden or anywhere from the vicinity of your home, then the first thing that you ought to do is to get rid of moist places. The moist places are there breeding grounds.
Habitat sabotage
Before thinking of exterminating earwigs try to sabotage and destroy the habitats of earwigs completely from the vicinity of your home, because once you use chemicals on them and kill most of the earwigs, the remaining earwigs can again reproduce inside their habitat. So, first destroy their habitat and then their whole generation.
Prevention
Preventing the earwig from camping in and around your home will help in solving most of the problems. To do that you should first try to bring down the light outside your home down, because these nasty little creatures are highly attracted to the bright lights. So, once the sun sets try to reduce the use of artificial lights. Clean the surrounding land because once you are equipped with necessary equipments to apply the insecticide, it will be useful and easy to apply on a plain ground rather than on a bushy mass.
Insecticide
There are times which are best suited to apply insecticides so that the effect is felt, one such season is the summer, to carry out the mission pest control earwigs. Because of the scorching sun the earwigs will come out of their underground nest. Cyper Cp is found by many of the users to be very effective in getting rid of earwigs. The one place where you should apply the insecticide is the foundation of your home. The foundation, most obviously, the moistest place in your home, so there you can get to many earwigs than elsewhere. See that your insecticide was provided with the crevices tool, which will be helpful in applying the insecticide into the crevices of the wall, and also in some gaps. Aerosol is the best form of insecticide because it spreads uniformly and easily even in the smallest of the gaps. Once you apply the insecticide most of the earwigs will die and you should clean them off instantly.

For every destructive insect invader, there seems to be an equally motivated buggy defender prepared to rise up and turn the tide in favor of a crop’s survival. One can’t help but wonder why commercial farmers fail to rely exclusively on this built-in system of checks and balances – but then, the obvious comes into focus. Oh right…it all boils down to time and money. Mother Nature tends to take her sweet time restoring the natural order to a crop ecosystem, however, in our fast-paced society where livelihoods are contingent upon absolute guarantees of Read the rest of this entry »
