Eia nō naʻe, ke ʻimi nei kekahi poʻe i nā ʻano kūlohelohe hou aʻe no ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i nā mea ʻino holoholona, a e hōʻike mākou iā ʻoe i nā lāʻau pepeke kūlohelohe maikaʻi loa i palekana loa no nā holoholona a hiki iā ʻoe ke hana i kahi ʻano home olakino a palekana hoʻi.
He nui nā hoʻohana o nā insecticides palekana no nā holoholona, inā makemake ʻoe e hoʻopau i nā pepeke i loko o kāu māla a i ʻole e hoʻopau i nā pepeke i loko o kou home a me nā mea kanu hale. ʻO ka hopena maikaʻi loa e pili ana i ka pest āu e hoʻāʻo nei e hoʻopau. ʻOi aku ka nui o nā hoʻohana o kekahi mau insecticides ma mua o nā mea ʻē aʻe, e kōkua ana i ka pepehi ʻana i nā ʻano pepeke like ʻole, a loaʻa i nā ʻano hana like ʻole, mai nā pauka a i nā insecticides wai a me nā pīpī.

Loaʻa ka ʻaila Neem mai nā hua o ka lāʻau neem, kahi waiwai i nā phytochemicals a hoʻohana ʻia i ka mālama ola kino, nā mea hoʻonani, a me ka kaohi ʻana i nā mea ʻino. ʻO ka mea hana nui ʻo azadirachtin, nona ka hopena repellent, hiki ke kāohi i ka hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana o nā hua pepeke, kāohi i ka ulu ʻana o nā pepeke, a pale i nā mea ʻino mai ka ʻai ʻana. Hiki i nā māla ke hoʻohana i kēia insecticide ākea e kāohi i nā haneli o nā mea ʻino maʻamau, me:
He biodegradable ka Neem a palekana ke hoʻohana a puni nā ʻīlio, nā pōpoki, nā manu, a me nā holoholona. Hiki i ka ʻaila Neem ke hoʻopilikia i nā mea ola wai, no laila he mea nui e hōʻoia ʻaʻole ia e pau i nā kahawai a i ʻole nā pā kūloko.
No ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka ʻaila neem ma ke ʻano he pīpī foliar, e kāwili i ka 1/2 teaspoon o ke kopa kīʻaha palupalu, palekana no nā mea kanu a i ʻole ke kopa castile me kahi kuata o ka wai i loko o kahi ʻōmole pīpī a hoʻowali maikaʻi. E hoʻohui i 1-2 teaspoon o ka ʻaila neem a lulu maikaʻi.
E hoʻopili i ka wai hoʻonā aila neem i ke kakahiaka nui a i ke ahiahi paha, no ka mea, ʻo ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka wā wela e hiki ai ke puhi i ka lau. E lulu i ka ʻōmole a pīpī i ka mea kanu mai luna a lalo. No ka mālama ʻana i ka hopena pale pepeke, ua ʻōlelo ʻia e hana hou i ka lāʻau ma hope o 7-10 mau lā. Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe maopopo pehea e pane ai kāu mea kanu i ka aila, hiki iā ʻoe ke pīpī mua i kahi wahi hoʻāʻo a kali i 24 mau hola e nānā i nā loli.
He pauka ka lepo diatomaceous i hana ʻia mai nā koena fossil maloʻo o nā diatoms, kahi ʻano limu ʻōmaʻomaʻo hoʻokahi-cell. Ua hoʻohana ʻia ka lepo diatomaceous e nā māla no nā hanauna e kāohi pono i nā ʻano pepeke a me nā mea ʻino, e like me:
Hana nā ʻāpana silica maikaʻi e like me ka desiccant. Ke lele nā mea ʻino, hana ka lepo diatomaceous (DE) ma ke ʻano he mea abrasive, e omo ana i nā aila a me nā waikawa momona mai ko lākou kino, e hoʻomaloʻo ana iā lākou a pepehi iā lākou. Inā kūʻai ʻoe i ka DE papa meaʻai, palekana ia e hoʻohana ma kāu holoholona. Hiki i nā ʻīlio ke lawe iā ia i nā liʻiliʻi no ka deworm a i ʻole e hoʻopili iā ia i ko lākou huluhulu e kōkua i ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā parasites waho.
E ʻoluʻolu e hoʻomaopopo ʻia ua ʻōlelo ʻia kēia huahana no ka hoʻohana waho wale nō i nā ʻīlio a hiki ke hoʻonāukiuki i ka ʻili ʻoiai ke kau ʻia ma waho. Hiki nō hoʻi ke hoʻopilikia inā komo i loko o nā maka a hanu ʻia paha e ka ʻīlio.
Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia nā mea pepehi holoholona papa meaʻai ma nā wahi āpau i loaʻa ai kahi pilikia pest, inā paha i loko a i waho paha. ʻOiai he palekana kēia pauka ma ke ʻano laulā, hiki iā ia ke hoʻonāukiuki inā hanu ʻia, no laila e ʻaʻahu mau i ka respirator a me nā mīkina lima i ka wā e hoʻohana ai.
Ke loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi wahi i hoʻopilikia ʻia, e kāpīpī mālie i kahi liʻiliʻi o DE ma luna, e ʻae iā ia e komo i loko o ka mea kanu a me ka lepo a puni. I loko, hiki iā ʻoe ke kāpīpī i ka DE ma nā kāpeti, nā keʻena, a puni nā mīkini hana a me nā ʻōpala, a kokoke i nā puka a me nā puka makani. E waiho no kekahi mau hola ma mua o ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana, a i ʻole no kekahi mau lā inā mālie ka wahi.
He manawa iki ka lōʻihi no ka DE e hana ai. E ʻike paha ʻoe i nā hōʻailona o ka emi ʻana o ka pae o ka maʻi i loko o kekahi mau hola, akā mai kahaha inā he pule a ʻoi aʻe paha e ʻike i nā hopena i ʻike ʻia. I loko o kēia manawa, e ʻoluʻolu e nānā i kāu ʻīlio e hōʻoia ʻaʻole lākou e ʻike i nā hopena maikaʻi ʻole.
ʻO Beneficial Nematodes kahi inikini lepo kū i nā pepeke e kōkua i ka hana ʻana i kahi māla aloha holoholona. Palekana kēia mau microbes no nā kānaka, nā holoholona, a me nā mea kanu a lākou e pale ai, a he kūpono hoʻi i nā anuhe, nā ilo ʻokiʻoki, nā ʻuku, a me nā haneli o nā mea ʻino ʻē aʻe e noho ana i kahi hapa o ko lākou pōʻaiapuni ola i loko o ka lepo. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ʻaʻole lākou e hōʻino i nā ilo honua, he mea maikaʻi ia no kāu māla.
Komo nā nematodes i loko o ka pepeke i manaʻo ʻia a loaʻa i ka maʻi bacteria e pepehi i ka pest. Ke hoʻopili ʻia nā pesticides i ka lepo, hoʻonui a laha nā nematodes, e hahai ana a hoʻopili i nā pest a lākou e loaʻa ai.
Loaʻa nā huahana kaohi nematode i nā ʻano hui like ʻole e hiki ke kāwili ʻia me ka wai a pīpī ʻia ma ka lau nahele a me ka māla a hoʻohana ʻia paha e hoʻoinu i ka lepo. ʻOiai ʻo ka lā e hoʻolilo ai i nā huahana kaohi nematode i mea ʻole, pono e hoʻohana ʻia i nā lā ao. He kūpono nō hoʻi nā lā ua, no ka mea, ulu maikaʻi nā nematodes i ka lepo pulu. A i ʻole, pono e hoʻomaʻū ʻia ka lepo ma mua o ka hoʻohana ʻana.
He koho ʻē aʻe aloha kaiapuni nā aila koʻikoʻi i nā pesticides kemika ʻino. ʻOiai he nui nā hui, e like me ka limonene, hiki ke lilo i mea ʻawahia i nā pōpoki a me nā ʻīlio i nā nui kiʻekiʻe, ʻaʻole paha e hana nā pae o nā aila koʻikoʻi i loko o nā huahana haʻahaʻa-ʻawahia i nā hopena maikaʻi ʻole. Eia kekahi mau insecticides kalepa palekana no nā holoholona hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ma ka home:
E hahai i nā kuhikuhi a ka mea hana e hōʻoia i ka hoʻohana palekana ʻana i nā aila pono i loko a i waho. ʻOiai he palekana nā aila pono ma ke ʻano laulā, hiki i nā ʻīlio liʻiliʻi a i ʻole nā ʻīlio i maʻalahi loa iā lākou ke loaʻa i kekahi mau hopena ʻaoʻao. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ʻo ke ʻala o nā aila pono he nui he mea ʻoluʻolu ʻole ia i nā holoholona, no laila ʻaʻole paha lākou e make i ka lāʻau make ma ka honi ʻana a i ʻole ka palu ʻana i ka aila.
ʻO nā pesticides kekahi o nā kumu maʻamau o ka lāʻau make i nā holoholona. Hoʻopilikia ka nui o nā huahana i nā ʻano holoholona ʻaʻole i hoʻopaʻa ʻia, no laila hiki i nā holoholona a me nā holoholona hihiu ke loaʻa nā hopena maikaʻi ʻole i ke olakino. Loaʻa nā pōpoki a me nā ʻīlio i nā pilikia like ʻole ke ale lākou i nā mea ʻawahia, hanu iā lākou, a omo paha iā lākou ma o ko lākou ʻili.
ʻO nā Pyrethrins/pyrethroids, carbamates, a me nā organophosphates nā papa pesticides maʻamau i loaʻa i kāu holoholona. I kekahi manawa hiki iā lākou ke hoʻoulu i ka lāʻau make nui ma muli o ke kemika a me ka nui o ka hōʻike ʻana o kāu ʻīlio. He maʻalahi loa nā pōpoki i ko lākou hopena.
ʻO ka hoʻonui ʻia ʻana o ka maʻi hiki ke alakaʻi i ka hypothermia, hyperthermia, ka paʻakikī o ka hanu ʻana, a me nā hopu ʻana. Inā kānalua ʻia ka lāʻau make, e ʻimi koke i ke kōkua lapaʻau, no ka mea, hiki i ka lāʻau make nui ke hopena i ka make ʻana o kāu ʻīlio. Ua pili ka herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid i ka lymphoma i nā ʻīlio.
Ua ʻike anei ʻoe hiki iā ʻoe ke kamaʻilio me ke kauka holoholona ma ka pūnaewele? Kaomi i ke kiʻi a i ʻole ke pihi ma lalo nei e hoʻonohonoho i kahi kelepona: Kaomi e kamaʻilio me ke kauka holoholona
Ma ke ʻano laulā, ʻaʻole hui pū nā pesticides a me nā holoholona, ʻoiai nā mea palekana no nā pōpoki a me nā ʻīlio. ʻO ka hoʻopili nui ʻana i nā hopena palekana hiki ke hōʻeha i nā holoholona, a hiki i nā holoholona ke hoʻopilikia i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka lepo diatomaceous a me nā insecticides kūlohelohe ʻē aʻe, e hōʻemi ana i ko lākou pono.
ʻOiai he nui nā pono o nā pesticides, hiki iā ʻoe ke hōʻemi i kou pono no lākou ma ka lawe ʻana i kahi ala holoʻokoʻa. Ma ka pale ʻana i nā mea ʻino a me ka hoʻolilo ʻana i kou home a me kou māla i mea ʻoi aku ka nani, e hōʻemi maoli ʻoe i ka nui o nā pepeke āu e hana ai.
Hoʻomaka ka hoʻokele pest i hoʻohui ʻia (IPM) me ka ʻike ʻana i nā ʻano pest i loko o kāu māla, nā mea pono a me nā mea ʻino. He mea nui ka mālama ʻana i nā ʻōnaehana ola no ka lepo olakino a me nā mea kanu, a ʻo ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā pesticide i hoʻolālā ʻole ʻia hiki ke hōʻino i nā meaola maikaʻi. Me kahi hoʻolālā IPM i hoʻolālā maikaʻi ʻia, hiki iā ʻoe ke hōʻemi i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā pesticide a kākoʻo i nā pepeke maikaʻi a me nā microorganism e paipai ana i ka ulu ʻana o nā mea kanu a pale aku i nā ʻano invasive ʻino.
Pono paha nā mea pepehi pepeke palekana holoholona i kahi hoʻoikaika hou aʻe e hoʻokō ai i ka pono o ka kaohi pest i makemake ʻia i loko o kou home a me kou māla, akā pono maoli ka hoʻoikaika ʻana o ko mākou ʻohana huluhulu. E noʻonoʻo i nā mea pepeke kikoʻī e kū nei i kou home a hoʻomohala i kahi hoʻolālā kaohi pest piha. Ma ka hōʻemi ʻana i kāu hoʻohana pesticide a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā hopena kūlohelohe i ka wā e pono ai, e lawe ʻoe i nā hana kuleana hou aʻe no ke olakino o kāu mau holoholona, kou ʻohana, a me ka honua.
Me ke aloha mau loa no nā holoholona o nā nui āpau, ʻaʻole ia he mea kupanaha ua hoʻolaʻa ʻo Nicole i kāna ʻoihana e kōkua iā lākou, ʻoiai ʻo kāna mau makemake nui loa ke aʻo ʻana, ke kākau ʻana, a me ka kaʻana like ʻana i kona ʻike me nā poʻe ʻē aʻe. He makuahine haʻaheo ʻo ia no ʻelua ʻīlio, kahi pōpoki, a me hoʻokahi kanaka. Me ke kēkelē ma ka hoʻonaʻauao a me ka ʻoi aku o 15 mau makahiki o ka ʻike kākau ʻana, manaʻolana ʻo Nicole e kōkua i nā mea nona nā holoholona a me kā lākou mau holoholona a puni ka honua e ola hauʻoli, palekana, a olakino.
Hiki iā ʻoe ke waiho i nā manaʻo a nīnau i nā nīnau. E ʻoluʻolu e hoʻomaopopo he pono nā manaʻo a pau e kūlike me kā mākou mau alakaʻi kaiāulu a ʻaʻole e paʻi ʻia kāu leka uila. E mālama kākou i ke kamaʻilio maikaʻi a kūkulu.
