To make this natural pesticide, you will need to mix a 1/2 teaspoon of bi-carb soda, one teaspoon of oil, a 1/2 teaspoon of dishwasher liquid, and 500 mL of water. Mix the ingredients in a large container and stir until they are fully combined. Once the mixture is ready, you can use it to spray your plants and garden beds.
Bi-carb soda is a natural fungicide and insecticide, and it helps to kill off pests and prevent them from coming back. The oil helps to smother the pests, while the dishwasher liquid helps to break down the oils and make them easier to wash away. The water helps to dilute the mixture and makes it easier to apply.
With regular use, you can keep your garden free of pests without having to resort to harsh chemicals.
