How To Make Natural Pesticide For Outdoor Plants
Introduction
Natural pesticides are a great way to keep your garden and plants healthy without resorting to synthetic chemicals. Making your own natural pesticide is also a lot easier than you may think. These homemade solutions can be just as effective, if not more so, than the store-bought variety. Here’s how you can make your own natural pesticide in four simple steps.
Grab a spray bottle or garden sprayer.
Grab a spray bottle or garden sprayer. The first thing you’ll need is a container to hold the natural pesticide ingredients, like a 2-cup spray bottle or garden sprayer. When selecting your container, be sure it holds at least 2 cups of liquid and that it’s made of glass or plastic (not metal). It’s also important that the bottle is new so no residue from previous products gets on your plants’ leaves and makes them more susceptible to pests! For this reason, don’t reuse any old bottles you might have lying around the house—buy a new one specifically for making natural pesticides. A funnel can also come in handy here if you’re using a large container; pour all of the ingredients into one smaller container before transferring them into your larger jar so they aren’t messy on top of each other while being poured out later on down the road when needed.
Once everything has been transferred over into its permanent home within either container type mentioned above (glass vs plastic)…
Add 2 cups of oil and 1 cup of baking soda to your container.
Add 2 cups of oil and 1 cup of baking soda to your container.
Baking soda is a base and oil is a base, so when they are combined together they create what is called an emulsion. This means that the mixture will not separate into two distinct layers like water and vinegar do in this experiment we performed with them.
Add half a teaspoon of dish soap to the mix.
- Add half a teaspoon of dish soap to the mix.
Dish soap is an emulsifier that helps the solution stick to plants better. You can also use liquid hand soap, but it will work best if you use a gentle dish soap that is free of perfumes and dyes. This recipe can be used on houseplants as well as outdoor plants including vegetables, fruits, herbs and flowers.
Fill the rest with water.
The final step is to fill the rest of the bottle with water. You will want to mix this solution and use it immediately, so make sure you have a spray bottle or garden sprayer on hand to complete this step as well. Mix 1 teaspoon of baking soda with 2 cups of vegetable oil and add it into your water bottle. Add 1 teaspoon of dish soap and shake vigorously until all ingredients are combined. Use this mixture on outdoor plants that need protection from pests or fungus such as tomato plants, rose bushes, etc.
Spray away!
Now that you’ve made your natural pesticide and know the best ways to apply it, it’s time to spray!
- Spray early in the morning or late in the evening when it is not too windy.
- Do not spray on warm days and don’t spray when plants will be exposed to sunlight for long periods of time because they can burn.
- Make sure there are no bees around before spraying any plants that attract bees like lavender or mint.
You can make your own pesticide from scratch!
If you have a natural garden, this pesticide is perfect for you. You can make your own pesticide from scratch! If not, it may be less effective on weeds than other pesticides. The reason for this is because the ingredients are all natural and they aren’t as strong as chemicals would be.
It’s best to use this as a preventative measure rather than a cure-all solution if something goes wrong; it won’t work right away but it will help keep pests away over time.
Make sure to only use sparingly—even though it’s natural, it’s still a pesticide!
