Can milk kill insects?

1. Can kill insects

Spraying the plants with milk can kill insects. Because the milk will solidify on the leaves and form a mucous membrane. Smaller pests such as red spiders and aphids will be stuck by this mucous membrane. After the milk has completely solidified, rinse it under running water to wash away the pests.

2. Specific methods

First prepare a box of milk and then pour it into the spray bottle. Then just spray the leaves where the pests are. Be sure to spray both sides of the leaves. If you only spray the front side, the pests on the back side may remain on the leaves.

After spraying the milk, place the plant in a cool and ventilated place and wait for a few hours so that the milk on its leaves can solidify. Finally, put the plant under running water to rinse off all the small insects on the leaves.
