Insecticide For Garden Plants
1. Neem Leaf
Neem has long been used for its medicinal and culinary properties. It is also known to be used as a deterrent to pests. This medicinal herb has a bitter taste and strong odour that may keep the bugs away from your plants, but non-toxic to animals, birds, plants and humans. It’s best to spray neem oil on young plants where it is said to be effective for about 22 days. Add some neem oil to a dash of liquid soap and some warm water and stir slowly. Add it to a spray bottle and use immediately.

2. Salt Spray
One of the best and most natural ways to make pesticides at home is salt spray. In fact, not only does it help deter pests, it will also help increase nutrition absorption like magnesium and help plants take up vital nutrients like phosphorus and sulphur. You can add some salt in water and stir the solution well. Add it into a spray bottle and sprinkle on the plants. You can also sprinkle salt around the base of your plants, reapplying every week.
3. Onion And Garlic Spray
Take about one clove of garlic and one medium-sized onion and add some water to them. Let it stay for a while before you add a teaspoon of cayenne pepper and a dash of liquid soap to the mix. Use it on your plants to ensure that no bug infests your produce.

The strong smell of eucalyptus oil deters insects and bugs. All you need to do is to spray some oil on your plants and see the results. Make sure you use it regularly.
5. Chrysanthemum Flower Tea
Chrysanthemum flowers are said to hold a powerful plant chemical compound known as pyrethrum. This substance is believed to damage the nervous system of insects and pests. All you need to do is to boil some dried flowers in to a pan full of water for about 20 minutes. Strain, cool and add it into your spray bottle. This solution can be stored up to two months. In order to make it more effective, you can add some neem oil to it.

Insecticide For Garden Plants
Insecticides are a necessity for gardeners. They can be used to control pests on plants, shrubs, and trees. Some pesticides are contact insecticides, which means that they kill insects that come into contact with the spray or liquid. Others are systemic insecticides, which are absorbed by the leaves of plants and move through their vascular system to kill insects that eat the plant’s leaves or flowers.
Insecticides come in many forms: sprays, dusts, liquid concentrates, pellets and granulars. Each type of pesticide has its own advantages and disadvantages.
