I believe every household has garlic cloves, that essential seasoning for stir-frying! Friends who grow flowers, did you know that garlic cloves are not only an indispensable seasoning in delicious food but also a great helper for repelling pests when we grow flowers! Friends who don't know might find this outrageous, right? Then follow along with me and read on!

At this point, many friends who grow flowers will wonder: why is it that after growing flowers for so long, they were still doing fine and looking perfectly lovely just a while ago, but then the flowers slowly faded and even the leaves of the whole plant began to wrinkle. Actually, it's because many of us didn't observe carefully; it's very likely that the entire plant is already covered with small bugs.

Many friends who have grown flowers for years will feel this way: they not only worry that their flowers will turn yellow and wilt, but also worry about attracting small bugs. And if they spray insecticide on flowers that already have bugs, they're afraid it will affect the flowers' growth.

Today I'm here to solve this worry for you, friends! I'll teach everyone how to make a "green insecticide", so please read carefully! I hope it's useful to friends who grow flowers!

Step one: We need to peel our garlic cloves, 5 to 6 cloves is enough, and then mash them into garlic paste.

Step two: Put the mashed garlic paste into a container of a suitable size, add cooled boiled water, and soak for 24 hours.

Step three: After soaking for another 24 hours, we can use a strainer to separate the garlic paste from the garlic water, and then dilute the garlic water 3 times.

Once the above steps are done, we can pour the prepared garlic water into a spray bottle and use it. We just need to aim at the places on the plant where there are bugs and spray an appropriate amount, and that's it! The effect appears gradually, and we need to spray the garlic water for 3 consecutive days. That way, our flowers won't have bugs anymore!

I hope my sharing is helpful to everyone. Friends, if you have any other pest-repelling methods, you can share them with everyone in the comments below!
