Pest Control for a commercial Vineyard

Saving your vineyard from pests is like saving your investment from predators. Your hard work goes in vain if rodents, birds and other pests spoil the fruits especially if you are into commercial marketing of your products. Insects and at many places deer and other animals may also be a cause of concern although some of the insects will help in the pollination process and keep other small harmful insects at bay. But chances should not be taken in your vineyard as pollination can be done artificially with the same accuracy and efficiency as insects.

Your vineyard will give you an indication whenever it is plagued by the insects or other microorganisms. This can be checked if there is heavy downfall of leaves or a sudden change in the color of the leaves or stems. Egg laying by insets on leaves causes a big damage on the leaves as the pores for respiration are closed and the leaves die an early death. The best option to avoid this situation would be to spray the vineyard with insecticides and pesticides to keep insects and microorganisms at bay. Spraying the vineyard at regular intervals in consultation with a expert will be the best option.

Birds cause a heavy damage to the vineyard in terms of pecking at the early fruits and damaging the flowers along with the vine. To avoid this situation the vineyard can be covered with a net but in winters the net has to removed lest ice forms on it and does a damage to the vines. Another option is to scare the birds manually but that will be possible if a flock attacks the vineyard. With modern technology many gadgets have been introduced that will emit ultrasonic waves and scare the birds away. This is becoming the most popular and most cost efficient way of keeping birds at bay from your vineyard.

Animals like deer and cattle can be a big cause of concern but you can avoid them entering your vineyard by erecting fences all around the vineyard. Having a professional company take care of the pest control, if you have a big commercial vineyard will be the best option.
