With the approach of warm weather, ants are becoming an increasingly common problem. UAportal has prepared several proven and effective life hacks that will help prevent insects from entering the greenhouse.

Natural remedies

To prevent ants from entering the greenhouse on their own, you can sprinkle cinnamon around the entry points. The strong aroma of the spice repels insects.

Placing citrus peels around the greenhouse can also scare away ants. After all, they tend to avoid the smell of these fruits.

Sealing

A practical approach to protecting your greenhouse from ants is to seal all cracks and holes in the structure with caulk. This way, they will not have easy access to the greenhouse.

Pay attention to windows, doors, and any cracks in the foundation. This method not only protects against insects, but also helps maintain the internal temperature in the greenhouse.
