The key to success against garden pests is to identify the pest and take action. First, plant plenty of annual flowers and flowering herbs in your garden, these will attract beneficial insects such as ladybugs, hover flies, and lacewings, which can help control pest populations. Most insects your gardens are either beneficial or neutral, in fact, less than 1% of insect species are known to be agricultural or human pests. That means that most of the bugs you find in your garden are causing it no harm, and many are helping you control pests, pollinate flowers, and break down organic matter. Next, use garden covers such as insect barriers, row covers or deer netting, that help to prevent pests from getting at your vegetables.
