Hey guys, I was just thinking why don't we list our recipes for killing aphids and other bugs that attack our plants here. I'll go first.
1part coffee-1 tablespoon(I've read the caffeine will kill aphids and other pests)
1part dishwashing handsoap-1 tablespoon like ajax or palmolive(I've read the soap makes the pests sick and breaks down being non-toxic in the soil)
1 part mouthwash- a full shot(I've read that mint is a disinfectant for plants and diseases that they may have. It also has alcohol which is supposed to dry up aphids)
I put all of these ingredients into a small spraybottle and fill it up with water then shake it well. So here is my aphid and disease killing recipe. This stuff also kills ants on contact. I have used it for about 2 weeks with no harmful effects to my plants. In fact all of my VFT which were growing twisted are now growing normally. I am very happy with this recipe. Anyone else want to share?
