You do the best you can to keep the lawn healthy but it just doesn’t seem like enough. There are weeds all over the place, and it looks horrible. You can’t wait for summer to be over when you’ll get to weed your garden, but you’re worried about having to battle pests as well. The bugs that eat your plants, flowers, and vegetables also love feasting on the lawn. You’ve tried some sprays to repel them but that didn’t work either. I know what you’re going through because I had a similar problem myself, which is why I’ve put together this list of homemade organic pesticides to help you get rid of the bugs in your garden and keep them away this year and beyond.There’s a lot of different factors to consider when deciding what to spray on the plants in your organic garden. You need an organic pesticide that won’t dry out the plant you’re trying to protect, but will also kill any pests or bugs on it. Before you buy expensive and harmful conventional pesticides, check out this list of natural pesticides for your outdoors plants.
Natural Pesticide For Outdoor Plants
Natural Pesticide For Outdoor Plants
Natural pesticides are a great solution for anyone who wants to avoid synthetic chemicals. They’re often made with plants and plant products, which makes them safe for people and pets alike. This particular natural pesticide recipe is made with ingredients that you can find in most gardens. The oil of citronella, lemon eucalyptus and thyme are all proven effective against pests like slugs, ants and aphids. The resulting spray smells good too!
There are so many natural pesticide options out there but usually theyre not very effective
The fact is, there are plenty of natural pesticide options out there. And although most of them don’t work very well, that doesn’t mean you should give up on them entirely. Here are some things to keep in mind:
- You can use one kind of natural pesticide for your plants and another type for your yard or garden (if it’s smaller). If you have a large area to cover with just one type of plant, then pesticides might be the way to go. But if you’re using multiple types of plants throughout your yard or garden, then there will be no need for pesticides outdoors because each plant’s needs will differ slightly from other plants’ needs.
- Experiment with different ratios until you find what works best for your situation—and remember that even if something doesn’t work immediately, it may take time before results show themselves!
Theres a recipe that is said to be the most effective and easy to make
The recipe is highly effective, but it’s also very easy to make. There’s no need to add vegetable oil or dish soap, nor do you need hot pepper oil in your mixture.
The mixture can be made by mixing 2 cups water with 1 tablespoon of baking soda.
The ingredients are hot pepper oil garlic and dish soap
Next, the dish soap is an emulsifier. You can use another type of oil if you want to experiment with different effects. You can also use any kind of dish soap—the important thing is that it has to be a grease-cutting one like Dawn or other similar products.
The hot pepper oil and garlic pack quite a punch when it comes to insect deterrence, but they’re both non-toxic substances so you don’t have anything to worry about when using them around your plants.
