Marigolds Are The Secret Weapon Your Garden Needs To Ward Off Wasps
By KELLY CATLIN

Although the colors yellow and white usually attract wasps, marigolds have a spicy aroma that they dislike, making the flowers ideal for keeping these pests away.
Even better, these flowers allow you to protect your garden without worrying about harmful chemicals that can pollute your waterways or harm people and pets.
