How To Prevent Pest Problems In Your Garden

How can I prevent pest problems in my garden?

Sometimes when we have a monoculture, we'll get a pest that will come in and will just proliferate because it's species specific. For example, there's a pest known as a black blister beetle that will only feed on clematis, some asters, and so forth. So if the entire garden was comprised of that, this pest would pretty much decimate it. So having a nice, diverse cross section prevents destruction as a whole in the garden
