Natural Pest Control with Companion Planting

Consider companion planting as a natural way to control pests in your garden. Certain plants have a natural ability to repel or attract specific pests. For example, marigolds are known to deter aphids and nematodes, while basil repels mosquitoes. By strategically planting these companion plants alongside your vegetables or flowers, you can help protect your garden from pests without the need for chemical pesticides.
