Hello friend, my name is Matt and I am an organic gardener. There is a great website called Gardening Know How where they have many articles on organic gardening. Today I’m going to tell you about how to make your own insecticide for cabbage worms. Cabbage worms can be a serious problem for gardeners because they eat all the leaves of your plants. Homemade insecticides are easy to make and completely effective in killing pests. It’s July and I’m certain many are starting to plant their cabbage, broccoli, and other leafy greens. It is also spring when these pesky caterpillars start to lay eggs (see pictures below), in the hopes of a fresh garden the next season. While both broccoli and cabbage worms don’t do large-scale damage, they sure can make your plants unsightly.
Homemade Insecticide For Cabbage Worms
The most unique and effective insecticide for cabbage worms is one you can make yourself. It’s easy, it’s safe, and it’s effective!
First, mix equal parts water and white vinegar. Then add a few drops of liquid soap to the mixture. The soap helps break down the waxy coating on the cabbage worm’s body so that the vinegar can do its job.
Next, put the mixture in a spray bottle or pour it into a watering can. Spray your plants thoroughly until the leaves are dripping with water, then wait for about an hour before watering again to ensure that all of the moisture has evaporated from your plant leaves.
You can also use this homemade insecticide as a preventative measure by spraying your plants every week or two as they grow during their vulnerable early stages of development. In the world of cabbage worms, there is no mistaking our insecticide for anything but the best.
This product is made with high-quality materials and is designed to do exactly what you need it to do: kill those pesky cabbage worms!
