How To Keep Pests Out Of Your Garden | Controlling Garden Pests

[@deltorres2100]

I love y’all’s beans. I love your shop because when you buy vegetables, you have an option on the seeds you want to purchase I love that. I’m in Houston Texas and we have a feed store here and he sells. He’s one of the old school. he sells seats by the scoop… He told me a lot of feed stores don’t do that anymore, but I always buy cover crop from him

[@keranhumble6782]

I have more trouble with leaf footed bugs. This year my peas have turned into a trap crop for that problem. I had a good onion crop this year as well. The Old Goat is in the metal bucket on the first shelf behind Sheila.

I call aphids something else. It's really a random selection of words I can't use among polite society LOL. They are easy to kill, but not easy to get rid of. I haven't found an organic one and done solution. Haven't had much rain, but if I want rain I spray for insects, then it comes and washes it all away. No rain in the 5 day forecast so tine to spray I guess.

[@lisafahrner8257]

They have a nice crunch sound. I bet they are very good.

[@deelite2356]

Old goat is sitting in the sifter, looking comfy. Such an important topic of bug busting!

[@Sorrento_Ben]

A couple of years ago during your Christmas show you each recommended one product that Hoss doesn’t sell. Greg, you suggested the Benchmade Bugout. I bought one on your suggestion and it’s been in my pocket every day since it arrived. Worth every penny. If it’s not the perfect knife, it is the perfect every day carry. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thank you so much 😊

[@shaleesecameron4948]

Hey, y'all coming over from TG. Looking forward to your videos.

[@gardeningwithhoss]

Thanks for coming

[@susanparker-heitel702]

Coastal central Florida please send us some of your rain. I have not had enough rain to wet the cement of driveway in several months. My garden went from glorious to dead. Even plants that I have had for several years have died. Yes I water and mulch but it just isn’t like rain.

[@gardeningwithhoss]

Hopefully you’ll get some soon!

[@SouthernLatitudesFL]

I too am Coastal East Central, FL. We finally got some rain but drying again.

[@cathytuffley5472]

We had those worms on tomato plants when I was a kid my sister planted some tomatoes and we got worms. My brother picked him up put my coffee can and put some lighter fluid on him and let it on fire, but I don’t know what they did to keep them off theplant all I used to hear when I was a kid was Sevendust so maybe that’s what they did

[@beckymartinez9926]

The old goat is on the bottom right shelf in the aluminum container

[@robertantolik2146]

You left out leaf footed bugs and pea curculio. That's my worst problems. Whiteflies too which you covered

[@JimJWalker]

I did a batch of Hoss cucumbers and did a refrigeration pickle run. Took them to the lodge and the brothers ate the whole jar!

[@MynewTennesseeHome]

Here in S/E middle TN on the Plateau we've been getting 3-5 days of rain 0.5-1.5 per day and then 3-4 days of dry. It's been pretty good so far. My corn is struggling a bit and my okra is slow to grow but everything else is trucking along. You can use any of the aerial parts dried as a tea for anxiety and relaxation(most commonly the flowers). The Old Goat is in the sifter in the corner. I always dust flea beetles with white wood ash, been working for 30+ years

[@tpen891]

Old Goat is in the sifter behind Mama Hoss. I have so many lady bugs, dragon fly's, and many other good bugs this year so I have not been spraying anything this year. The only bug that I hate is the Melittia Cucurbitae to the point I am going to stop growing squash in the spring and just do a fall planting.

[@melvinreeves3674]

We had 6 inches this week hear Springville indiana can't get nothing in ground

[@michellejones716]

I am growing the mini me cucumbers this year for pickles. I haven't harvested any yet but the vines are loaded.

[@gardeningwithhoss]

You will love them

[@joelhenderson5404]

In the flour sifter! Old goat!

[@Keith_Alamond]

Good evening my Hoss peeps!! The old goat is in the silver sifter. Y'all have a good one.

[@gardeningwithhoss]

Thanks! You too!

[@davidward1259]

Well, the Ole Goat seams to be ready to help mix or scoop something up for the garden. Looks like he is inspecting the galvanized scoop on the bottom shelf behind Mama Hoss (Love those Overhauls Mama Hoss!!!). Nice knife there!!! Benchmade is the real deal for sure. I bought a electrostatic spray unit to try this year. It is "supposed" to give a more uniform application and stickage to the plants due to the electrostatic attraction. I have not used it yet though. Another insecticide I like to use is Monterey's Garden Insect Control which is a Spinosad based organic product. Sort of between the BT and BugBuster products on the pesticide scale IMO.

[@JimJWalker]

Old Goat. Far right bottom shelf =)

[@bobbianderson7346]

Been told that Sunflowers are a trap crop for stink bugs/leaf-footed bugs. Also heard the Hubbard squash works for the squash vine borer...

[@beckypeterson7522]

Between cabbage loopers and squash vine borers, sigh!!! I"m trying more barrier type solutions (deer eating my broccoli and sweet potatoes... Solution? Fencing and cloches!

[@ronevans852]

After all I’ve gone through this year with my health issues. Plus my wife I was able to get mad while trying to put a farm implement on tractor, having a very hard time with it, so I picked up that implements and trying to make it go on . Then I thought oh I’ve messed up now for such. I had done more damage to my back . Well the next morning I was able to walk with out pain, that was about 4 months ago.to this day I’m still walking. I got out and made a small garden. I just order some supplies from you guys yesterday Greg. Before the bugs get here.

[@gardeningwithhoss]

Keep going!! Don’t give up! Get Dirty!

[@DavidBrown-vx6fb]

[@joybartlett9784]

The old goat is on in the metal cup on the bottom shelf by Mama Hoss. We don't have to go fishing we just sit on the front porch and the fish are coming to us. Would be nice if the cornmeal would come too. We would have us a fish fry 🤤.

Here in the Tampa Bay area I have too many grub worms and not enough bees. Haven't seen a bee in a week.

Old goat behind mama Hoss in the flour sifter.

[@beckymartinez9926]

Spider mites are my nemesis. I’ve never been able to wipe them out but if I do battle with them all season long I can keep them from doing quite so much damage.

[@joelhenderson5404]

We canned 48 quarts of pickled beets Monday.

[@joeford7350]

I have no idea!

[@fredalyons8580]

Leaf miners are the bane of my existence. They attack my basil, tomatoes, peppers- everything. Every year!

[@nolawarren3560]

Gheesh, those knives really are expensive.

[@SouthernLatitudesFL]

I have a red passion flower, Lady Margaret, which is a hybrid. Makes fruit, but hollow inside. They do propagate by vines just popping up around the mother.

[@rwg727]

I really like Mrs Hoss's orange overalls!

[@gardeningwithhoss]

Thank you!

[@venidamcdaniel1913]

Sifter has a visitor. Old goat.

[@cliffordgurley4882]

What’s your thoughts on liquid seven for pest? I’m using a lot of your seeds this year for the first time having a great germination success. Thanks

[@gardeningwithhoss]

It works well, but is harsh on the bees.

[@tlnelson7598]

The old goat is on the bottom shelf, in the corner behind Mama Hoss,

[@johnsonr9]

Good info. Thanks.

[@DerrickKnighton-v6t]

Can you use sevin dust on tomatoes

[@gardeningwithhoss]

yes, but I would try something organic first,

[@southalroots]

Pickle worms getting my squash, and griller zucchini. And eight ball zucchini 😡

[@rodflasch2330]

I think I saw the kindly easy placement of the old goat. Just over Mama Hoss's shoulders. In the flour sifter.

[@anthonycoffee7683]

My trap crops are the ones my wife likes. 😂. Brassicas! I can’t get them past a few inches tall. They liked these white butterflies and called them my mother in law. I then found they are bad so now Grandma Helen is eating all of my wife’s food! I have garlic planted all around the plants but it’s not strong enough.

[@anniegaddis5240]

BUG Pests seem ro be not too bad at this time in Decherd (middle South Tennessee) but the dang ANIMAL pests have already dug up my taters (opposum?), made a bed in my strawberries (raccoon?) and something LARGE (deer?) crushed a bed into my Comfrey patch! Even the local CATS have found anywhere I've sturred up some ground while pulling up weeds, and decided that must mean it's a potty!!! HELP! Suggestions please!

[@StarrThomason]

My #1 enemy is that leaf footed bug and stink bugs 😡 goat is on the bottom shelf to the very right

[@eugenegunter2953]

Hi. Do you have a b have blue sweet potatoes?

[@gardeningwithhoss]

No, sorry

[@katelinrhan324]

The spring season was hard for me. I’ve been gardening for a few years now and I have found that black beauty zucchini is my go to for zucchini. And this year my zucchini has been pitiful. While my zucchini suffered this year I have found a lot of success growing a few different culinary herbs. I was able to successfully grow basil thyme rosemary and sage!

[@bettyp.8177]

Good information! Thank you for helping us battle the crazy summer pests! Old goat is sitting in the old metal sifter on the shelf.

[@wnshelton]

Let the passionflowers turn to fruit and eat the fruit- Maypops. Some places have passionflower tea made from leaves.

[@Maria-ql3fc]

My Hossinator tomatoes are loaded with maters and are about 5 ft tall. Nope I didn't give them a bunch of nitrogen .

[@virginiadaneke2362]

This spring i had black aphids on chives of all things. Easy to control rhis time by rubbing my fingers over them.

[@lisafahrner8257]

I’m glad you talked about snails. I finding some on my grapefruit tree and on my container pots.

[@pamelaroden5513]

I had those horrible squash bugs, and I got so desperate to get rid of them, I took dawn degreaser dish soap (heavy on the soap) and water in a sprayer, and it killed them but I still did a second spray just in case.

[@anitabaldwin2176]

Hoping for help with the pesky white moths. They're terrible on my cabbage and broccoli but when I don't plant those, they go after everything else. I've tried Neem Oil but doesn't help.

I see the old goat in the sifter behind Sheila

[@ericdale6201]

We had an odd spell mid spring and I believe it is the reason my corn is tasseling early. Planta only about 2-3 feet tall. Should I pull them out and start over, or will they produce? I am in Central Alabama.

[@gardeningwithhoss]

They should produce.

[@janetbgood]

Thanks for identifying the pesky pest problems with pics. I've got something looking like it rips the edges of the leaves and was hoping I would see a pic of that. Any idea? Thanks for what ya'll do.

[@gardeningwithhoss]

send a picture to [e-mail] and we'll take a look.

[@flyfishdr]

Cabbage worms love collards😕

[@perryhubbard3036]

what is causing the problem in the attached picture. What about stink bugs? Anyway to keep raccoons out of my corn. I have a fence of plastic material 6 feet tall around the garden

[@gardeningwithhoss]

Please send the picture to [e-mail].

[@raymondhusser2189]

I have the bug buster 2. I’m scared to spray on plants with flowers. Won’t that kill pollinators??

[@gardeningwithhoss]

yes, that is why you spray when the bees are not active.

All these bugs are giving me the heebeegeebees! 😮😂

[@nevinhilburn1360]

Nevin here in nacoma park,Oklahoma could you recommend anything to do for voles,moles,and gophers 🙏

[@gardeningwithhoss]

That is a tough one. I did find a homemade remedy, I do not know if it works or not. For a homemade remedy, mix three parts castor oil and one part dish soap. Add four tablespoons of the mixture to a gallon of water. Soak the tunnels and entrances to evict the moles and soak the holes to evict gophers. Castor oil is one of the most effective home remedies to get rid of these animals

I love those little cucumbers, there great for salads, nice and crisp. Nancy from Nebraska
