Well, i'm just a market man who brings you up to date every day
Every time it rains in the summer and autumn, the southRuralAnd when a house is built on the hill and a small house on the ground floor, snakes become a problem for many families. Snakes are easy to hide when there is a hole in the wall, a pile of wood and grass, a drain, a corner of a vegetable garden, in a cold and wet place. Some snakes are poisonous, adults go down to work and play in the children's home, and they are afraid at all times。
A lot of people doSnake protectionI tried a lot of dirt. The smell disappears when a heavy rain washes; chemical anti-ventilatives are bought, smelly, domestic poultry pets are raised, and there is fear of poisoning; weeds are cleaned every day and weeds grow in a few days, and snakes still sneak in。
It's a very practical oneLife experienceIt's around the courtyard wallPhoenixThe country is also known as "fingernail flowers". In the popular version, “the front of the door is a fingernail flower and the viper is not entering the house”, many farmers grow from year to year, and snakes are rarely seen near the walls of the compound. To be objective, of course, it is not a flower that can be exaggerated by the “repulsion of ten-mile snakes”, and growing in a single form can have a certain evasive effect, but cannot be considered as an all-powerful shield. Today, in the context of civic experience and common sense of reality, it is clear how these flowers are grown, how well they have worked, and a comprehensive family-wide snake-prevention programme。
I. Why would snakes be able to avoid the country's nails
The phoenix flower, popularly known in the countryside as the fingernail flower, the childhood memory of many people, and the crushing of petals torn into the cranium, produce red nails. In the past, almost all homes had been built in front of their homes, and in addition to being used to dye nails, there was an additional level of protection against snakes。
In terms of plant components, the roots and leaves of the phoenix emit special bioalkalin substances, and humans can barely smell them, but the snake's smell system is sensitive and relies on tongues to sense the chemical molecules in the air, a weak irritating substance that can be captured at a close distance, can create discomfort and avoid this growing area as much as possible。
Here we have to correct the exaggeration on the internet: the phoenixes can't drive away snakes a few kilometres away without poison. If one or two basins are left alone, the range is too small for snakes to go around the flower basin, they can still drill into the yard from the open side. It is only through successive plantings along the walls, forming a bouquet of grass that it can act as an excus。
A lot of people are confused and mix up with snakes. The smell is stronger when snakes close their doors to yellow flowers, which are commonly used in the folk as an anti-ventilating plant, and when the phoenix blossoms are better fed, the seeds grow from year to year, the money is less expensive to buy, and ordinary farmers are easier to plant。
The two plants can be combined with plantings, with a part of the outer circle of the wall growing phoenix flowers, with several snakes sown in the edges, with a double scent, and better protection。
Ii. The phoenix flower is grown to practice, so it's easy to spread seeds
The phoenix is alive, the soil is not choosy, the wasteland and the hole in the wall can grow, and the newcomer can grow。
Time of seeding
In spring, the temperature rises, and in the months of 4–may it is most suitable to sow at temperatures above 15°c, and the seed sprouts are fast. It is also possible to collect directly the black seeds from the old plant last year, which burst as soon as the fruit matures, collect and store the seeds, and sow them directly next year without paying for them。
2. Plantation location (very critical)
Don't just plant flowers in the middle of the yard. In order to have an excusive effect, emphasis is placed on places where snakes are easily accessible at the root of the compound, on both sides of the gate, on the corner of the house, on the perimeter of the drain, and on the outskirts of the garden. A series of plantings along the wall do not spread in pieces。
Close to woodhouses, chicken coils, piles of groceries, the focus is on a variety of areas where snakes are the preferred places to hide。
3. Daily maintenance
The phoenix flowers are not expensive, and they are then planted without frequent fertilization. The soil is dry enough to be watered, the sun is hot, and the summer heat can bloom。
The period 6 months to september coincided with the most frequent season of snake activity. In autumn, seeds are seeded and dropped in the soil, and in the second spring they are seeded and planted once in a year without repeated planting。
Reminds us not to eat phoenix juice at will, but only to grow a garden to watch and shelter, and not to bring it in。
Iii. In addition to the phoenix flowers, there are three other types of grass that are common in rural areas
If the family space is sufficient, it can be combined with several indigenous plants, with multiple fragrances, further reducing the probability of snakes approaching。
First, the snakes are dead. With a bunch of yellow small flowers growing tall, all of them smelled of special and strong, snakes were rejected. It is suitable to plant around the corner of the courtyard, where snakes are the most active in the summer, and when the fall and winter snakes hibernate, the plant will die naturally and will not be carefully managed。
Second, 10,000 daisies. The flowers are bright, the smell is heavy, and the snakes don't like it. Cultivated along the garden, it is able to protect both snakes and many garden pests。
Thirdly, the bars are back. In the wild, it is common to have stinged vines, leaves triangles, fruit blue purple. The leaf has its own special scent, and the branches are punctured and the snakes are reluctant to travel. It is suitable to plant in the wasteland outside the compound walls and wild plants can be replanted。
Once again, all these are odour-excavation plants, not snake-killing plants. Only the probability of snakes approaching can be reduced and no 100 per cent isolation can be achieved. Don't plant a few flowers, so let's relax our home。
Iv. Many people step on the pit: snakes are protected from flowers and snakes
In reality, many farmers grow phoenix flowers and sometimes see snakes, and many feel completely useless, but they are in a cognitive error zone。
First, weeds work on the scent, which has an effective range. If a snake hunts rats and frogs, the prey is in the yard, the snakes rush into the odour zone for food, and the flowers cannot stop the snakes that feed。
Second, after rain, the rain washes the soil, so that the odour of the plant is diluted and the effect of avoidance is reduced。
Thirdly, weedings in the yard, piles of miscellaneous goods and the proliferation of rats are tantamount to feeding snakes and hiding places. Even when the outer areas are full of snakes, snakes are willing to come in and settle down。
So, growing snake-hunting grass is just part of the whole snake-proof work, not the whole thing. To truly protect the safety of the home, it must be organized in harmony with the environment。
Sharing of the whole comprehensive snake-proof four-step approach for old rural farmers:
1. Cleaning of weeds, piles of rock, abandoned wood, wood, no hideout for snakes; and keeping of miscellaneous items as high as possible and not attached directly to the ground。
2. Get rid of rats. Snakes come to human homes, mostly in pursuit of rats, with fewer rats and, naturally, fewer snakes。
Close the gap. The courtyard wall holes, sewers, doors and windows are able to block as much as possible with barbed wire and cement to reduce the passage through which snakes enter。
4. Anticipatory protection is provided by the planting of euphemisms on the outer edges, such as the scavenging of snakes。
Environmental clean-up, supported by grass, is the best way to prevent snakes。
In case of snakes at home, remember these things
Even with full protection, it is possible to encounter snakes occasionally, and many people panic and make mistakes。
First, don't take the initiative to fight snakes. Snakes are vulnerable to attack and are not known to be toxic and at high risk. Don't grab it, don't make fun of it。
Second, slow back, open a safe distance, close the door and isolate the snake from the outside。
Third, contact local firefighters or professionals in a timely manner and do not risk dealing with them。
Fourthly, if an unfortunate snake bites, remember the shape of the snake, do not use drugs with the mouth, do not cut open the wound, immediately reduce activity and take the serum to the doctor as soon as possible。
Many of them said that venom could be removed from the wounds of the phoenix and the snakes' leaves. This was only a civilian emergency and could not be a substitute for regular medical treatment, and it was important not to delay access。
Vi. At the end
In rural areas, the term “a flower pushs away a ten-mile snake” is an exaggeration of the older generation, but the phoenix can aid the snake, and it is a life experience learned by a generation of farmers。
A seed is being planted beneath the walls of the compound, flowers are being blooming, and summer can also have a certain effect on the protection of snakes and snakes, growing them for a year without much effort. But we need to look rationally and not place the whole sense of security on flowers。
Cleaning the environment, closing gaps and eliminating rat sources are the most fundamental means of protection against snakes. The grass is only an aid to the flowers, and it is in and out that the family can be kept safe。
