2 Insects or Bug’s? It probably won’t surprise most gardeners plants that insects/bug outnumber humans many millions of times over. While some insects can be beneficial for certain plants, gardeners are all too familiar with the destruction of many tiny crawly critters.

3 Making of Natural Pesticide #1  Recipe #1 – 1 head of garlic – 1 tablespoon dish soap – 2 tablespoons mineral or vegetable oil – 2 cups water Peel the garlic cloves and puree the cloves along with the oil and water. Allow to sit over night and then strain the mixture. Add the soap and mix toughly. Pour into a spray bottle and use on pest infected plants.

4 Making of Natural Pesticide #2  Recipe #2 – 1 tablespoon vegetable oil – 2 tablespoons baking soda – 1 teaspoon dish soap or Murphy Oil – 2 quart of water Combine ingredients and pour into a spray bottle. Use this organic bug spray for plants on your affected plants.

5 Getting Rid of Gardening Bug  Build Healthy Soil – Limit Soil Disturbance – Compost – Mulch – Rotate crops – Plant cover crops

6 10 Natural remedies can help you to get rid of the bug that commonly found in the home.

7 1. Soapy water Mix 5 tablespoons of dish soap with 4 cups of water in a bottle and spray plants with the solution. The soap will dehydrate aphids and spider mites.

8 2. Neem oil spray Made from the seeds of neem trees native to India, this age-old, natural insecticide and anti-fungicide repels aphids, mites, scale and other small, soft-bodied insects

9 3. Pyrethrum spray This natural insecticide is made from dried chrysanthemum flowers. Mix the powder with water and dish soap to create a spray. Pyrethrum spray paralyzes flying insects on contact, so many pest control companies use it to control mosquitoes.

10 4. Beer It’s not just for drinking. Snails and slugs like it, too. Set out saucers of beer to trap and prevent these creatures from munching on plant leaves and roots. Grape juice or grapefruit or orange rinds also make good traps.

11 5. Garlic Garlic’s strong smell not only repels vampires, it detracts bugs. Stick a clove of garlic into the soil of houseplants to keep bugs away. Even bugs hate garlic breath.

12 6. Pepper spray Make a solution of 2 tablespoons red pepper, 6 drops of dish soap and 1 gallon of water, and spray your plants. Black pepper, chili pepper, dill, ginger and paprika also work because they contain capsaicin, which repels spider mites and other insects.

13 7. Herbal water spray Essential oils from sage, thyme, basil, rosemary, mint, rue and lavender repel some insects. To create a spray, take crushed leaves or trimmings, soak in a bucket of water overnight and strain. Or, dilute store-bought essential oil with water. You can also plant these herbs in your yard to detract insects.

14 8. Alcohol spray Create a solution by mixing 1 or 2 cups of 70 percent isopropyl alcohol with a quart of water. The solution will repel insects from houseplants and tropical foliage.

15 9. Nicotine To repel leaf-chewing insects, make a nicotine tea by soaking 1 cup of dried, crushed tobacco leaves in 1 gallon of warm water and one-fourth teaspoon of dish soap. Strain after 30 minutes, and spray the mixture directly on the leaves.

16 10. Water Final but not the list. Much like a heavy downpour, a strong spray of water from a house can remove bugs from plants.
