Plants that insects do not like, make great companions to other plants in your organic garden. Planting onions and garlic amid your organic vegetables will repel a variety of insects. It might even keep the bunnies away. In addition to providing insect protection, you can harvest onions and garlic, too. Marigolds are another great companion plant.<\/p><p align=\"left\">A companion plant can also be one that insects like. In South America, coffee growers plant banana trees around the coffee crops. Insects like the sweet, banana plants and fruit, much more than coffee plants.<\/p><p align=\"left\">Note: Plants that repel insects often make a good ingredient for insect repellent sprays.<\/p><p align=\"left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenersnet.com\/atoz\/compan.htm\">More on Companion plants<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b237c3c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b237c3c\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cf7b613\" data-id=\"cf7b613\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5230605 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5230605\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Beneficial Insects<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-785723c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"785723c\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-71918cb\" data-id=\"71918cb\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-502a8cb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"502a8cb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p align=\"left\">One way to get harmful insects out of your organic garden is to introduce and promote beneficial insects into your garden. \u00a0The most well-known beneficial insects are ladybugs and praying mantis.

The fine mesh keeps insects out, yet lets sunlight, air, and moisture in. The amount of sunlight entering and reaching your plants is dependent upon how fine the mesh is.<\/p><p align=\"left\">There is a wide range of insect and pest netting. A 1\/4&#8243; to 3&#8217;8&#8243; mesh may be effective against Cicada, locust, and grasshopper invasions.
