Spray plants leaves stems and around the trunks on the ground. DO NOT Spray in the heat of the day or when the plants are in direct sun as it can burn the plants. Must be reapplied after rain or watering.

In a half-gallon of water, add a tablespoon of dish soap and a quarter cup of vegetable oil and spray on the crops. It's a cheap, effective, simple insect deterrant. However, you will need to reapply it once a week or everytime after you water from above or it rains. It will keep away rabbits and squirrels too. They don't like the taste of soap.

do no longer spray mattress trojan horse spray on your physique. it incredibly is a toxin and is no longer designed for that purpose. quite, the two purchase a organic mattress trojan horse epidermis repellent (see source a million) or a product which incorporate Off. it incredibly isn't a hundred% helpful yet will help. you additionally should placed on tight setting up clothing to mattress. mattress bugs will purely chew uncovered epidermis areas. in case you place on socks over sweats for example, you're reducing the variety of areas for the mattress bugs to chew.

BSSD made me think of one more thing... Calandula is another good compaion plant.
Also, Bt is a good, natural, caterpillar killer.. It is a bacteria that only affects cabbage white butterfly caterpillars... they eat it and it kills them.. just don't over apply, cause the 'pillers can develop a resistance. :(
