When it comes to preventing pests in indoor gardens, the easiest method is to simply check your plants for any bugs or pests regularly. That way you can easily catch any pests at the beginning stages of infecting your plants, and they’ll be easier to remove. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In warmer weather, simply moving your indoor garden outdoors in the shade can prevent an infestation from occurring. When outdoors, there is a chance that any bugs on the plants will jump off and move to another source of nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Spraying neem oil on the plants in your indoor garden can also help. A lot of the pests don’t like the smell of neem oil so they’ll decide not to feed on your plants. Not only will this decrease the chance of the pests moving from one plant to the next, but it also can help remove the pests that are already present on a plant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What Conditions Attract Indoor Plant Pests?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n For many pests, it is the warm and humid conditions of an indoor garden that is appealing. Similar to other bugs, it is possible that the warm, humid conditions in which most plants thrive are causing these pests to want to find a shelter or source of nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another factor is the location of the indoor garden. If the plants are located near large windows or a larger doors that are often open, pests will likely be attracted to them because they can easily come inside and find a new food source where there won’t be predators nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overall, many pests can negatively affect your indoor garden, but there are things you can do to remove them before they negatively affect your plants. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
