🌱 Natural Ways to Control Pests on Plants 🍋
Many houseplants and garden plants suffer from small insects that damage leaves and stems 🍃. These pests can include whiteflies, spider mites, aphids, or tiny caterpillars. While chemical pesticides can work, they often harm the plant’s health and the environment 🌍.
Natural sprays are an effective and safe way to keep your plants healthy. In the image, you can see an example of a homemade natural spray 🏠. This spray protects plants without strong chemicals ⚡ and keeps leaves fresh and healthy 🌿✨.
Ingredients for a Natural Spray:
Lemon juice 🍋
Warm water 💧
A few drops of natural liquid soap 🧼
Some plant-based oil, such as neem oil or olive oil 🌿
How to Prepare:
Mix one cup of warm water with a teaspoon of lemon juice.
Add a few drops of liquid soap and plant oil.
Shake well until the mixture is fully blended and ready to use.
How to Apply:
Spray all sides of the leaves, including the undersides, where pests like to hide 🌿💦.
It’s best to spray early in the morning or at sunset to avoid burning the leaves in direct sunlight ☀️.
