Don't use poison (pesticide) because they form part of the diet of birds and other animals. Make a safe area to hang a terracotta or plastic bird-feeder and put out snacks for the birds - you can buy mixed wild bird seed at supermarkets, and put out little kitchen scraps as well. Also hang a tray of water and freshen it regularly. Don't try to encourage the birds to become tame; they might be safe with you but it's a bad idea to teach them humans are safe! My plants were being eaten by caterpillars and grasshoppers until I began feeding the birds from trays hanging in a tree, safe from cats; I almost never see the pests any more. In fact, the last big moth I saw was in 2006, when it perched on my garage door and a crow swooped in and ate it, just reaching it ahead of a honeyeater. We still have a variety of butterflies; they're a bit fast for many birds, but their caterpillars don't eat much and it's lovely to watch the butterflies dancing about the garden during the short season they're here. You'll have the pleasure of watching birds visiting your garden to feed and bathe, and also the pleasure of not watching your plants being eaten.

∙ 7y agoArachnids, crustaceans and mollusks as well as insects, myriapods, terrestrial crabs and woodlice are the garden bugs to recognize and get rid of even though the first group of three do not fit the requirements for the description of arthropod ("jointed leg") that serves as the basis for a wider than literal meaning of the term bug. The particular means of elimination depends upon the type of bug even though proper attention to heat, light, moisture and nutrient requirements specific to each plant family goes a long way to alleviating or ending the ecosytem stress and severe weather that encourage garden bugs to behave badly. Beneficial predators such as ladybugs and organic controls such as horticultural oils, insecticidal soaps and row covers tend to make elimination or mitigation easy, eco-friendly and effective.
