Laidback Gardener Tip of the Day

Learn to Love Indoor Spiders

décembre 3When you find a spider in your house, don’t kill it! Put it instead on a houseplant. If an aphid or another insect wanders too close to your plant, you can be certain that the spider will eat it in no time, preventing the start of what could be a terrible infestation! Yes, admittedly, spiders are rarely very pretty, but they are great friends of gardeners, inside and out!

Garden writer and blogger, author of 65 gardening books, lecturer and communicator, the Laidback Gardener, Larry Hodgson, passed away in October 2022. Known for his great generosity, his thoroughness and his sense of humor, he reached several generations of amateur and professional gardeners over his 40-year career. Thanks to his son, Mathieu Hodgson, and a team of contributors, laidbackgardener.blog will continue its mission of demystifying gardening and making it more accessible to all.
