Companion planting to attract the right kinds of bugs! 😆 I underplant with different flowering plants that are pollinators favourites to entice hoverfly whose larvae devour soft-bodied bugs. Include umbelliferous flowers like parsley or wild carrot as ladybirds also love them. Parasitic wasps (look like ants with wings) also are great predatory insects.
