Are the creatures that visit and live in your garden friends or
foes? How can you discourage the bad and nurture the good? And how
does each animal fit into the essential garden ecosystem? You'll
find the answers in the verdicts, evidence and treatments presented
in this innovative new book. Including more than 50 common garden
residents - from squirrels to starlings, from ladybirds to
leatherjackets, and from frogs to flea beetles - it tells you how
to encourage the forces for good and explains how best to deter or
get rid of (ideally organically) those that bring damage, disease
or even death to your precious plants. And vitally, it pieces
together the key links in the garden food chain and shows how to
maintain nature's delicate balance on your plot. As well as the key
gardening information you need, you'll discover here the
extraordinary ways in which garden wildlife is adapted for success,
how to encourage vital pollinators and how to plan planting and
cultivation to pre-empt problems. You'll see how to use pesticides
safely if you must, and there are hints and tips on the best ways
to deal with cats and dogs, chickens and geese in the garden. So
whether you want your garden to be a haven for hedgehogs and
honeybees, to have fewer slugs and snails, or to be know all the
pros and cons of crows and cabbage white caterpillars, then these
are the verdicts you need. Garden Wildlife on Trial is the sequel
and companion volume to Ruth Binney's successful Weeds on Trial
published in 2019 (ISBN 9781910821299).
