Integrated pest management and companion planting

Integrated pest management (IPM) is a step-by-step approach to managing pests sustainably. You’ll explore how to: prevent pests through proper garden care and planning; monitor for early signs of pests to avoid outbreaks; and use natural solutions like beneficial insects and homemade sprays to control pests effectively.

You will also discover how pairing the right plants together can: naturally deter pests using scents and trap crops; attract beneficial insects to your garden; and improve plant health and yields through strategic combinations.
