mulmi Posted December 13, 2014 Share Can someone please me...... My garden is being overrun by hornets Small yellow and black ones. There is a lot of them What can I do about them? Edited December 13, 2014 by mulmi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddy Gordo Posted December 13, 2014 Share I normally just nuke em with a pesticide at the nest. But lots of people wouldnt, instead they would get tortured with soapy water. For me its a decision between my veggies or the insects. Veggies rule however Edited December 13, 2014 by Eddy Gordo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulmi Posted December 13, 2014 Share Any type of pesticide you found that works well. I am worried about my kids, pets and veggies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanD Posted December 22, 2014 Share Hi All, Glad i cma across this topic as i have started preparing an area for a herb nad veg garden. By no means hav ei got green fingers so and advice would be welcome. I have not managed to read all the replys to this topic so apologise if there is a repeat questions. Seen some of the pics and your gardens are looking excellent so well done. I was reading that raised beds give more space and is a better idea than growing in rows. So i was thinking of either paving, grassing or even just concreting the area then buys those wooden raised beds to plant my herbs and veg in. Some advice would be welcome on this and if it is just better to plant directly into the ground in rows. Looking at having this doen by next summer as i am a bit late in getting the ball rolling and will take some time. I will post some pics of the area when i get a change. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
