RAM - Bug Barriers

Insect control is an important aspect of hydroponic gardening, as pests can quickly infest and damage crops in the absence of natural predators. There are several methods of insect control that can be used in hydroponics, including physical barriers, biological controls, and chemical treatments.

Biological controls involve introducing natural predators or parasites into the growing area to control insect populations. For example, ladybugs can be introduced to control aphids, or parasitic wasps can be used to control whiteflies. This method is effective and environmentally friendly, but may require some expertise to implement correctly.

Chemical treatments involve the use of pesticides or insecticides to control insect populations. While effective, this method should be used with caution in hydroponics, as it can have negative impacts on plant health and the environment.
