🌿 MILLIPEDES: GARDEN FRIEND OR FOE? 🌿

These little recyclers 🚜💨 love breaking down dead leaves & wood, boosting your soil health! But sometimes… they get a little too cozy. Here’s the scoop:

✅ THE GOOD:
✔️ Nature’s decomposers—they compost organic waste!
✔️ Aerate soil as they burrow.
✔️ Harmless & won’t bite (unlike centipedes!).

⚠️ THE BAD:
❌ Can overpopulate in damp, mulchy spots.
❌ Might nibble seedlings or soft fruits if food’s scarce.

🐛 DIY FIX: DIATOMACEOUS EARTH!
If they’re getting out of hand, sprinkle food-grade diatomaceous earth (DE) around problem areas. It’s a natural, non-toxic powder that dehydrates pests—just reapply after rain! ☔

💡 Pro Tip: Reduce excess moisture & clear decaying debris to keep their numbers balanced.
