How do I keep rollypolys and other insects out of my strawberry patch?


Question:my strawberrys are getting chompt!

Answers:
Rollypollys are there because of the moisture under the leaves. They eat dead material, so they are not killing the plants. If they are there, it is too wet for strawberries and they will rot. Move the plants to a drier location or plant in a raised bed. As far as the other insects go, you may need an insecticide.


Use a few grenades.
