Natural Enemies Handbook

Monday, April 26th, 2010

The Natural Enemies Handbook is nicely-priced and full of potential solutions for people wondering about all the various biological, natural ways to control the bazillions of potential pests who frequent our gardens. This tome presents a list of natural enemies to a wide variety of insects, spiders, and animals of all kinds, including advice on such items as urine solutions now found fairly commonly in garden centers. Cougar Pee is always something a rabbit will not enjoy – without further elaboration, let’s leave it at that. But the information may be of substantial use to almost any of us, if for no other reason than merely to know more about those critters and crawlers who frequent our yards and gardens. I enjoyed it also for its pictures and for purposes of identification. It is a most helpful little book.

Basic Country Skills

Saturday, April 17th, 2010

The Basic Country Skills serves not only as a bang up read concerning every element of living on one’s own, it also offers some very cool solutions to pest control problems. Written for the apprentice farmer, issues such as critters like skunks, rats, rabbits, deer and other garden-threatening animals are interspersed with a few topical recommendations for poreventing rampant mosquito populations, along with aphids, beetles and any number of infestations. I like the book because of its general information. Many users rave about all the relevant information regarding the myriad other issues, from actually acquiring land to building fences and gates and where and why to do so. I’m a sucker for a good read and this one is pretty encyclopedic. Pretty fun and informative.

UltraSound Pest Repeller

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

The Bird-X YG Yard Guard Ultrasonic Animal Repeller offers a chemical-free solution to invasive animal pests including and perhaps specializing in dogs and rodents. Emitting a variable and adjustable output, this unit is not heard by humans, yet reaches an annoying point in animals’ hearing environment, making them seek more amenable environments. Users have mentioned cats can be somewhat immune, but then, why drive off another pest control unit?

Operating silently, this splendid bit of technology can be used effectively over an area of 4,000 square feet, emitting that high-pitched, ultrasonic (to humans) noise which animals pick up and find exceedingly irritating. Items such as this represent the ability of modern humans to protect themselves from the ravages of lawn and garden pests without having to resort to poisons and other such solutions which often can cause damages to the loved pets of a household or those of neighbors. Easy to mount, it is maintenance free and waterproof.
