A Belarusian Showed How He Fights Colorado Potato Beetles Using a Vacuum Cleaner VIDEO
Ihar Kitsikau, a resident of Vileika, demonstrated an unusual method of combating Colorado potato beetles on potatoes on TikTok. Instead of collecting pests manually or using chemical means, he took an ordinary vacuum cleaner and simply went over the potato plants with it. Thus, the beetles along with their larvae ended up inside the vacuum cleaner, writes Kraj.by.
The video quickly gained popularity and sparked active discussion. Some users praised the author for his ingenuity and noted that this method allows for quick cleaning of beds without the use of insecticides. Others treated the idea with humor, remarking that more money might be spent on electricity than the potato harvest itself is worth.
Despite different opinions, the unusual garden life hack attracted the attention of many gardeners and was actively discussed. Some users even admitted that they are ready to try this method on their plots.
