Spray some mint water and all the aphids will die! Every time Huahua sees the dense aphids in her house, she always feels like she gets goose bumps. Some flower lovers always feel that aphids cannot be killed no matter how hard they try. What should they do? Why not try a mint spray? Directions: 1. If you have mint lovers at home, you can pick a handful of mint leaves, chop them up and squeeze the juice to get mint juice. 2. Find a clean bottle, add about 10 drops of mint juice, 10 ml of medicinal alcohol, and finally add 500 ml of water and stir evenly. (500ml of water is roughly the amount of water in a standard mineral water bottle) 3. Spray the prepared peppermint alcohol solution directly onto the plants with aphids. Remember to spray both sides. Use it about once a week to kill the aphids! 4. If there is no fresh mint at home, you can use peppermint essential oil to achieve the same effect. Because mint contains insecticidal ingredients and medical alcohol can destroy the body structure of aphids, it is very effective in killing aphids. Put a coin in a plastic bag and flies will never come in again! Huahua passed by a residential area a few days ago and saw many neighbors hanging plastic bags on their windowsills. From a distance, they looked bright. What was going on? Later I found out that it was to prevent flies! Directions: 1. Prepare a clean, waterproof plastic bag (plastic gloves will also work), and fill the bag with clean water. 2. Then prepare 3-5 clean coins, one-yuan coins will do, and throw them directly into a plastic bag filled with water. 3. Tie the opening of the plastic bag tightly and hang it directly by the window to prevent flies from entering the house! 4. Why can coins and water prevent flies from entering the door? Because flies have compound eyes, the plastic bag filled with water and coins will scatter the light. It may seem fine to us humans, but it will be terrifying to flies, so they dare not fly towards the window and cannot enter the house! Dear flower lovers, you can give it a try! Spray some onion water and all the red spider mites will be gone! What is the hardest bug to kill? That must be Red Spider! It pops up every time I kill you, over and over again, it's really annoying! Summer is here, so why not try onions! Directions: 1. Buy a fresh onion from the supermarket, then chop it into small pieces. It is best to mash it if possible. If you are worried about your eyes stinging when cutting onions, you can cut the onions in water. 2. Mix onions and water in a ratio of 1:50 to make a solution. Put it in a container and soak it for more than 24 hours to allow the onions to be fully soaked in the water. 3. After soaking for 24 hours, filter out the onion residue and spray the remaining onion water directly on the plants. Remember to spray both sides. It only takes about 3-5 times to make all the red spider mites disappear! 4. Onions have a strong pungent smell, which can effectively repel red spider mites. Remember to spray them multiple times for the best effect. Plant a pot of mosquito repellent plants to scare away all mosquitoes! The most annoying thing in summer is definitely the endless stream of mosquitoes! However, many flower lovers do not want to spray pesticides at home. What should they do? Today Huahua will teach you how to grow some mosquito repellent plants! Directions: 1. Mosquito repellent grass If you want to repel mosquitoes, mosquito repellent grass is the first choice. Because the fragrance of mosquito repellent grass contains citronellal, this substance emits a stronger smell and a stronger mosquito repellent effect when the temperature is higher. Basically, just put 1-2 pots in each room. 2. Tuberose When tuberose blooms, the scent is very strong. Just put a pot of it by the window and mosquitoes won't dare to come near all night. However, the smell of night-blooming jasmine is too strong, so it is best to place it on the balcony or in a ventilated window. If placed in the bedroom, it may cause insomnia! 3. Mugwort Flower lovers who have mugwort at home should never waste it. After drying the mugwort, put it directly in a pot and boil it in water to let the smell spread throughout the room, or put the mugwort water in a spray bottle and spray it on the plants, which can basically drive away mosquitoes! Spray some wind oil + floral water, and all the moths will run away! It is easy to attract small moths in summer, especially for flower lovers, who often attract larvae of moths and butterflies. At this time, we need wind oil and floral water to help! Directions: 1. Prepare a clean bottle, drop about 5-10 drops of medicated oil into it, and then add 5-10 drops of floral water. 2. Finally, add 600-800 times of clean water into the bottle, mix the two solutions evenly, put them in a spray bottle and spray them directly on the plants! 3. Mixing wind oil and floral water together can not only effectively repel mosquitoes, but also has a great insecticidal effect on the larvae of moths and butterflies! You might as well give it a try! Sprinkle some dust on the surface of the basin to scare away the snails! The continuous heavy rains in recent days have caused snails to appear in the homes of many flower lovers, especially those with small gardens, where snails are rampant in their yards! Directions: 1. Sprinkle lime Snails are afraid of waterlogging, so they basically crawl out after it rains. Therefore, we can usually sprinkle a layer of lime on the surface of the potting soil. If the snail accidentally touches the lime, it will lose water in its body and die. Over time, the flowers at home will be protected from being eaten by snails. But be careful not to get the lime on the leaves. 2. Sprinkle some wood ash In the evening, sprinkle dry wood ash directly on the stems and leaves of flowers and plants. You can choose to sprinkle some on the leaves after spraying water, so that snails will not crawl onto the flowers to eat them! 3. Sprinkle some crushed eggshells Crush the eggs at home and throw them directly onto the basin. Because the edges of the eggshell are sharp, when the snail climbs on the eggshell, it will scratch its skin, so it will never climb onto the flower pot again! Spray some pepper and chili water, and all the black flies will run away! Speaking of the little black flies, they are definitely a pain in the hearts of flower growers. No matter how hard you try, they can’t be killed and they will pop up again after a while! Don’t be afraid, today Huahua will teach you how to use peppercorns and chili peppers to kill black flies without any future troubles! Directions: 1. If you have peppercorns at home, grab a handful, put them in a pot, then add 3 times the amount of water and boil them. 2. Buy some fresh peppers in the market, about 5 will do, then throw them directly into the pot and cook them together with the Sichuan peppercorns for about half an hour. If you find it troublesome, you can also squeeze the peppers into juice before using. 3. Use a strainer to filter out the chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, dilute the remaining Sichuan pepper and chili pepper solution with 10 times the amount of water, and spray it directly on the leaves. Spray it 3-5 times in a row to completely kill all the black flies and their eggs! That’s all for today’s introduction to Huahua! Do you have any other good ways to kill insects?
