Poison that shit? Would you?

in #gardening6 years ago

A lot of people on my island still use poison like Roundup to kill weeds in their gardens. What they don't realise is that killing weeds, also means killing bees and butterflies and the bugs that are food for the birds. Killing weeds kills a whole invisible habitat that is part of nature.
The birds need bugs for food we need bees to pollinate our food. The bats eat the mosquitos.
When people move to the tropics they want the beach a luxury home with a pool but the tropics in all essence they don't want.

My garden is poison free. I grow food for my chickens and for myself. I need the bees to pollinate my flowers and mosquitos stay away because of my citrus plants.
Everything that grows in my garden gets a fair chance. Like this beautiful wild passion flower.

A gift of nature. Considered a weed by some but to me a beautiful treasure with macnificent value .

Beautiful photos!
My friend and I grow Passion fruit.
I don `t know if all kinds are edible.
Our edible and very tasty and healthy!
But, in any case, this is a beautifully flowering liana!
How can destroy it?

your post is very good I am happy to visit your blog warm regards from me @dewa123

Thank you so much.

So very true, there are so many natural things that people can use to keep pests away. I dont mind pulling weeds myself in the garden or yard🧡 . Do you know a way to kill fire ants? I know that vinegar kills lots of weeds and things but what about fire ants?im also going to resteem and hope others realise what they are doing or can do better.
