There’s nothing worse than noticing tiny insects<\/strong> and parasites infesting<\/strong> leaves<\/strong> and flowers<\/strong> while we’re watering our plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plant parasites are much more common than one might think: aphids<\/strong> and mealybugs<\/strong>, in particular, can attack plants <\/strong>to<\/strong> feed on their sap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is there a quick and easy way to keep these pesky insects away? Absolutely!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, we can prepare a natural garlic insecticide<\/strong> in a very short time. Let’s see together how to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NB:<\/strong> If infestations are at an advanced stage<\/strong>, it is best to seek the advice of a professional<\/strong> to definitively eliminate parasites from plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What You’ll Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First, be prepared to have on hand:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • a bulb of\u00a0garlic<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • a liter of\u00a0water<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • a\u00a0saucepan<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • a plastic or glass bottle with a\u00a0spray\u00a0bottle<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Procedure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Take a bulb of garlic<\/strong> and cut it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To do this, you can use a blender<\/strong> or do it manually with a knife<\/strong>, being careful not to cut yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Meanwhile, put a liter of water<\/strong> on the fire and bring to a boil<\/strong>, before extinguishing the heat. Pour in the minced garlic<\/strong> and let it soak for a few hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After at least 4-5 hours<\/strong>, take the mixture and filter it to get only the liquid part<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Then, put it in a bottle equipped with a spray<\/strong> bottle .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Your insecticide<\/strong> is finally ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How to use it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    To use your garlic insecticide<\/strong> in the best way, you need to spray it on both the leaves<\/strong> that appear infested and the stem of your plant<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In fact, garlic<\/strong> is a natural antibacterial<\/strong> and antiparasitic<\/strong>. In addition to keeping parasites<\/strong> away , it prevents their return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In addition, it has the power to prevent the appearance of mold<\/strong> and mildew<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Ideally, this insecticide should be used 3 times a day<\/strong> (morning, afternoon and night) every 3 days<\/strong> until the infestation is defeated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You can use it on any type of plant. As it is an all-natural<\/strong> insecticide<\/strong>, do not be afraid to abuse it: it will not harm your plants in any way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Extra ingredient: onion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    If you want to make your garlic insecticide<\/strong> even more effective<\/strong>, you can use an extra ingredient: it’s onion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You just have to add 10 g<\/strong> of chopped onion<\/strong> to your preparation , macerating it together with the garlic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Onion<\/strong> enhances the repellent effectiveness<\/strong> of garlic. In addition, it is especially indicated against mites<\/strong> and mildew<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Other natural insecticides<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Don’t currently have garlic or onions at home? Let’s look at some alternative<\/strong> ingredients <\/strong>you can use to create a natural insecticide<\/strong> against insects and plant parasites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Tomato<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    A few tomato leaves<\/strong> are enough to obtain a natural insecticide that is super effective against garden insects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You simply have to get about 75 grams<\/strong> of tomato leaves<\/strong> and let them soak in 3 liters<\/strong> of water<\/strong> for 3 days<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Then, strain the mixture<\/strong> and pour it into a bottle<\/strong> with a steamer<\/strong>. Spray it on the infested leaves 2 times a day for about a week and the bugs will escape!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Nettle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    The plant known for its stinging effect: nettle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    20 g<\/strong> of dried leaves<\/strong> are enough to let them macerate in a liter of water<\/strong> for about 12 hours<\/strong>. Filter everything and put it in a bottle<\/strong> equipped with a vaporizer<\/strong> or spray cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Spray it on the plants once a day for 5 days<\/strong> : nettle<\/strong> , thanks to its pungent smell, naturally repels insects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It is a particularly effective pesticide<\/strong> against spider mites<\/strong> and aphids<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Marseille soap<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    An especially useful remedy if the parasite that has infested your plant is cochineal<\/strong>: Marseille soap<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This is the classic grandma remedy that will help you get your plants lush<\/strong> and green<\/strong> again .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Dissolve a few flakes<\/strong> (if solid) or a teaspoon<\/strong> (if liquid) in about 500 ml of<\/strong> warm water. Mix until you get a homogeneous mixture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Spray the mixture on your plants every 2-3 days<\/strong> to get rid of pests<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
