6 TAGETES – 6.37 - MARIAGOLDS REPEL CERTAIN PESTS

 
They May Repel Certain Pests
 
There are all sorts of claims out there for the pests that marigolds repel when planted in your vegetable garden.
Claims that marigolds can repel deer or rabbits are, unfortunately, completely unfounded. These flowers will not keep either of these animals out of your vegetable garden.
There is, however, some evidence to suggest that marigolds may be at least partially successful in repelling certain pests – such as cabbage moths and Mexican bean beetles. And scientists have determined that marigolds secretion of limonene can help (at least a little) in repelling whiteflies.

6 TAGETES – 6.37 - MARIAGOLDS FUTA WADUDU FULANI
 
Wanaweza Kukinga Baadhi ya Wadudu
 
Kuna kila aina ya madai huko nje kwa wadudu ambao marigolds huwafukuza wakati umepandwa kwenye bustani yako ya mboga.
Madai ambayo marigolds yanaweza kukataa kulungu au sungura, kwa bahati mbaya, hayana msingi kabisa. Maua haya hayatawaweka wanyama hawa nje ya bustani yako ya mboga.
Kuna, hata hivyo, baadhi ya ushahidi wa kupendekeza kwamba marigolds inaweza kuwa angalau kiasi mafanikio katika kufukuza baadhi ya wadudu - kama vile nondo kabichi na mende maharagwe Mexican. Na wanasayansi wameamua kuwa usiri wa marigolds wa limonene unaweza kusaidia (angalau kidogo) katika kuwafukuza nzi weupe.
