The Effectiveness of Selected Herbs and Flowers in Repelling Garden Insect Pests
Diane Matthews
It is concluded that interplanting may influence insect populations. However, some insects may not be repelled by interplantings but may in fact be attracted to them. It must not be assumed that because a plant species smells aromatic to humans that it will be effective in pest control. Plant/insect interactions are very complex, requiring further investigation before a more complete understanding is acquired.
