growth stimulant residues, it is becoming more and more common for families to

by growing vegetables at home. Additionally, the family will benefit from the
fresh, green space of the cleverly arrangement arch stake vegetable
trellises.

fertilizers, care, and checking of seedlings are just a few of the numerous
things that vegetable growers frequently have to manage. In particular, the
issue of insects and harmful pests on green vegetables is considered to be the
most annoying problem for the gardeners.

to insects and pests.

insects are small, yet they grow and spread rapidly. Vegetable gardens attacked
by insects will therefore suffer heavy loss of productivity and crop
quality. In fact, insects and pests love to eat many kinds of
vegetable and fruit such as:
●

are two popular climbing plants that are simple to grow on arch stakes. Thrips, aphids, and other green and gray
caterpillars frequently cause harm to the plant's young leaves, and fruit flies
sometimes infect ripe fruit.
●

for numerous pests because of its young, delicate green leaves. The most
frequent illnesses and pests that affect broccoli are borer, silkworm, etc.
Leafhoppers, green worms, gray caterpillars, and other insects…
●
Tomato: Tomatoes are a plant with short,
succulent stems. Additionally, the ripe fruit has a vivid red color, which
attracts a large number of unfavorable insects. Fruit and leaf borers can cause
serious damage to young tomato plants.
●
Potatoes: Because they grow in the soil,
potato sprouts easily become food for termites or ants. Stem borers,
aphids, and white grubs all frequently gorge the stems and leaves
for their food, including potatoes.
