Garden Pests and Predators: The Wildlife in Your Garden and Its Ecological Control by Elfrida Savigear
Gardens are living places, filled with millions of organisms which live in harmony most of the time - but there are the misfits. In a garden left to run wild the organisms will balance out until a stable situation results. But a cultivated garden creates an unnatural balance in which pests and predators can gain the upper hand from the unwary gardener. This book shows you how to identify your garden enemies, how to encourage the good and discourage the bad in an ecologically satisfying way.
