Using everyday items to grow flowers and kill pests: common household items are great helpers

When growing flowers in summer, besides doing a good job of sun protection, the most frightening thing is mosquito and insect attacks. Watching once-vibrant flowers and plants get eaten by pests until they have no life left in them, you buy all kinds of insecticides, and not only do they fail to kill the pests, they also give off a strong medicinal smell. Don't worry, below we'll introduce several pest-killing methods to kill all the pests.

Essential balm

First, mix one drop of essential balm into 600ml of clean water and stir well, then put it into a spray bottle, then spray it onto plants with pests, then find a plastic bag and put it over the plant, wait about 20 minutes and then take it off, and all the pests can be killed. This is because essential balm contains liquid paraffin, which can suffocate the pests.

Ginger water

First cut ginger into shreds, then soak it in water for about 5 hours, then filter out the ginger shreds, then put the water into a spray bottle and spray it on the plants. It can be used every day, and it can achieve the effect of disinfection and sterilization, effectively remove aphids and red spiders, and also prevent plants from fungal infection.

Tomato leaves for pest control

Pick about 5 leaves, then crush them, then soak them in 100 ml of clean water for about one hour, then filter out the leaves, put the solution into a spray bottle, and spray it on plants with pests, spraying once every 2 days, and all the pests can be killed. This is because tomato leaves contain toxins, which not only kill pests but also achieve the effect of repelling mosquitoes.

Milk

Expired milk can also be used. Put it into a spray bottle, then spray it on the leaves with pests, spraying both the front and back sides, then place the plant in a cool and ventilated environment. After a while the milk will form a kind of film, and after basically about 2 hours it can suffocate the pests. After killing the pests, the milk needs to be wiped clean, otherwise it will affect the plant's growth.

Luffa water

If any of you have luffa growing at home, you can cut the luffa vine, then put the end with the solution into a plastic bottle, and after one night the solution will basically have flowed into the plastic bottle, then mix and stir it with clean water at a 1:1 ratio, put it into a spray bottle, and it can kill pests. It can also be sprayed into the soil to kill insect eggs. It is completely harmless to plants and can also make plants grow better!
