*Best Ever Garlic Spray for Garden Pests*

More Pest Control Solutions

By Annie B. Bond, Executive Producer, Care2 Healthy Living Channels.

 

Ever since my friend Doug Harp told me about the great results he got

from using soap spray on the gypsy moths that had infested his apple

trees, I've worked on perfecting the ideal insecticidal soap spray

recipe that will work on a wide variety of garden pests.

 

This is it. It’s fast and easy to make, economical, non-toxic to the

environment and to our own bodies - and it works!

 

 

*Simple Solution:*

 

Soap has been used for centuries as an all-purpose pesticide. It

disrupts insects’ cell membranes, and kills pests by dehydration. The

key is not to use too much soap, or you’ll also kill the vegetation near

the pests. If you follow the proportions of soap to water in the Basic

Soap Spray recipe, below, the vegetation should be fine.

 

Note: Buy a liquid soap, NOT a detergent. Health food stores have liquid

soaps, such as Dr. Bronner’s Pure-Castile Soaps.

 

*Basic Soap Spray*

1 to 2 tablespoons liquid soap

1 quart water

 

Combine ingredients in a bucket, mix, then transfer to a spray bottle as

needed.

 

*Garlic Variation*

1 to 2 heads garlic, chopped

Enough boiling water to cover

Put garlic in the bottom of a mason jar and cover with boiling water.

Put lid on and allow to sit overnight, then strain and add garlic-water

to the soap spray. This will decay, so be sure to freeze leftovers until

ready to use again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Helpful Hints:*

 

This formula also works as an effective repellent for mice and deer,

since they hate the smell of garlic.
