Dosage, when to spray, where to apply the pesticides are so many things that we need to consider in garden care. Understanding what pests and insect can damage our garden is very important. Some garden pests are the result of overwintering. Pesticides for house plants can be used on peppers. Before you buy anything for your pepper plants, it is good to research effective organic sprays and ways to keep pests away from your potted peppers. The majority of commercially sold pesticides are very dangerous not only to humans but also pets and wildlife. Pepper plant are fast growing plants. They are considered to one of the most easiest plants to grow as they require less care compared to other plants. On the other hand, pests like to attack pepper plants because they eat their fruits, stems and leaves. This will result to partial or complete destruction of your pepper plants resulting to no production of pepper fruits. Destroyed pepper plants are very heartbreaking because all your efforts are useless if the pests destroy your plant. Not all plants are affected in the same way by pests and insects. The reason for this is that different types of plants have their own defenses against insects and other gardening problems. In fact, some plants use so many defenses that they are considered immune to certain diseases or pests. One of these plants is the pepper plant. It uses both physical as well as chemical defenses to fight off or kill its enemy.

Diy Pesticide For Pepper Plants

Introduction

Pests can be a big problem for pepper plants. If your plant is getting attacked by pests, it’s important to take action as soon as possible to limit the damage on the plant. One of the best ways of dealing with pests is to create your own pesticide at home. This will allow you to control what ingredients are being used, and you’ll have more confidence in their safety than if you were buying a pesticide from a retailer.

How To Make A DIY Pesticide For Pepper Plants

You can make your own pesticide for pepper plants by mixing baking soda and water, then adding vegetable oil and soapy water. Mix everything well, put the mixture in a spray bottle, and spray the plants.

• Add 1-2 teaspoons of baking soda to 2 cups of warm water. Stir until dissolved, then let sit until cool enough to touch (it won’t be long because it will be hot).
• In another bowl or container that holds about 1 quart of liquid, mix together 2 tbsps vegetable oil with 1/4 cup dish soap (I used Dawn). Add 5-10 drops essential oils if desired (I used citronella because I wanted a bug repellent). Stir well until combined; this may take some time depending on how much you use at once!
• Pour your cooled baking soda mixture into your soapy oil mixture while stirring continuously until there are no more clumps left behind — this will take some time as well! You want all those little bubbles gone before pouring over top of your pepper plants because they could burst during application which would waste product AND make things messy…not good! Once it starts flowing freely without any trace amounts present anymore then pour away! Once finished applying spray liberally onto plant leaves making sure not too much drips off onto surrounding areas like sidewalks etc.”
