When the garden suffers a severe disease or an insect infestation, it may be tempting to seek a quick fix by turning to synthetic chemicals. However, their use can disturb the natural balance. This Garden note discusses how garden establishment, soil and plant health, biological and chemical control can affect the balance of the garden, and also practical ways to reduce pest numbers and the incidence of plant diseases and weeds.
