Just sprinkle some ash, all the bugs will die, and the flowers will grow wildly and burst out of the pot!

plant ash

Wood ash is the ashes left after burning wood. It can effectively kill red spider mites, aphids, scale insects, etc. It can also eliminate powdery mildew of roses, rhododendrons, etc.! You can burn some dead branches and hay to get wood ash yourself, or you can buy it online.

Directly sprinkle in the basin

1. Dig a hole in the basin

Dig a hole far away from the flower roots, with a depth of 5-10 cm. If the flower pot is larger, you can dig 2-4 small holes.

2. Sprinkle the ash into the pit

Grab a handful of wood ash and sprinkle it directly into the pit, then cover it with soil and pour a small amount of water. This can effectively cure powdery mildew of roses, rhododendrons, etc. Or you can directly sprinkle wood ash on the diseased branches and leaves, which can also effectively kill insects, and then spray the leaves the next day.

Spray wood ash water

1. Soak the wood ash in water

Take some wood ash, put it into a clean plastic bottle, then pour in 10 times the amount of clean water, cover the bottle cap, shake well, and let it sit for 8 hours.

2. Spray on the flowers

Put the relatively clear upper layer of wood ash water into a spray bottle, and spray it directly on the branches and leaves of the flowers, focusing on spraying the areas with diseases and pests. Spray twice a month, and all the insects will die, and the flowers will grow strong.

Bamboo charcoal

Bamboo charcoal bags placed in the refrigerator or car can also effectively prevent diseases and pests. Don't throw them away. Some flower lovers have saved a lot of bamboo charcoal bags at home, which are just right for growing flowers.

1. Pour out the bamboo charcoal fragments

If the bamboo charcoal at home is large, you need to break it into small pieces first.

2. Sprinkle in the basin

Spread a thin layer of bamboo charcoal in the pot. It can not only effectively kill bacteria and prevent diseases and pests, but also improve soil permeability and air permeability, release a variety of minerals, and make the flowers grow rapidly.

Ash

The ashes and cigarette butts left over when smoking contain tar, which is toxic in itself and can kill aphids, woodlice, etc. Many flower lovers have reported that it has an insecticidal effect after using it.

Ashes sprinkled on the surface

1. Sprinkle ashes on the surface of the basin

If there is someone who smokes at home, you might as well collect the ashes. When you find aphids on the flowers or woodlice in the pots, you can directly sprinkle the ashes on the surface of the pots.

2. Pour water

After sprinkling the ash on the surface of the pot, pour some water on it to allow the ash to penetrate into the soil. This can effectively kill the adult insects and eggs in the soil.

Spraying cigarette butt water

1. Soak cigarette butts in water

Put the cigarette butts into a clean bottle and pour in clean water to soak them. After 2 days, when the water turns dark brown, the insecticide components in the cigarette butts will dissolve into the water.

2. Filter the water from cigarette butts and spray directly on the flowers

Filter the cigarette butt water first, then pour in 30 times the amount of clean water. You can pour it directly into the flowerpot, or put it in a spray bottle and spray it on the flowers, and all the insects will die. Just water it twice a month.

Ailanthus altissima leaves

Ailanthus altissima leaves are common in green belts. The special smell emitted by the leaves can repel insects and kill bacteria. They also contain flavonoids and other highly effective insecticidal ingredients, so Ailanthus altissima itself rarely suffers from diseases and pests. Huahua teaches you how to use Ailanthus altissima leaves to kill insects on flowers!

1. Pick fresh Ailanthus leaves

Go to the wild or green belts to pick some fresh ailanthus leaves, try to pick as many as possible.

2. Crush the Ailanthus altissima leaves

Find an old garlic mortar, chop the stinking sum leaves into small pieces, put them into the garlic mortar, mash them into a paste, add 3 times the amount of clean water, soak them for 2 days, so that the insecticidal components in the stinking sum leaves can dissolve into the water.

3. Direct spraying

You can directly water the soil with the water from the stinking sumac leaves, or you can filter out the residue first, put it into a spray bottle, and spray it on the location of the pests and diseases. Spray it twice a day for 5 consecutive days, and all the aphids, cabbage loopers, etc. will die!

Ground cinnamon

Many people have cinnamon powder at home, for example, they put some cinnamon powder when baking bread or cooking soup. Cinnamon powder also has a good insecticidal effect, and can effectively kill small black flies, fruit flies, etc.

1. Soil

Sprinkle a handful of cinnamon powder into the pot to effectively kill small black flies, fruit flies, etc., including insect eggs in the soil.

2. Get rid of ants

Sprinkling some cinnamon powder in or around flower pots can effectively repel ants.

Neem Leaves

Neem trees are usually planted on both sides of roads or in garden green belts. Neem leaves contain azadirachtin. Many pesticides extract insecticidal ingredients from neem trees. Compared with pesticides, using neem leaves to kill insects is more environmentally friendly and safer!

1. Crush the neem leaves

Pick more fresh neem leaves. The greener and tenderer the leaves are, the more neem extract they contain and the better the insecticidal effect. Pick more leaves, 3 pounds is better, mash them and add an equal amount of water.

2. Water in the soil or spray on the leaves

You can directly water the soil with the neem leaves after adding water, or you can filter out the residue first, put it into a spray bottle, and spray it directly on the cabbage loopers, aphids, and red spiders, and all the insects will die!

chili

The capsaicin contained in chili peppers can effectively kill black flies. It is natural and pollution-free, so you never have to worry about black flies again!

1. The hotter the pepper, the faster it kills insects

Either dried or fresh peppers will do, as long as they are spicy enough, such as the Chinese chili pepper. Some green peppers are not spicy and have poor insecticidal effects.

2. Chop the pepper

When chopping peppers with a knife, it is best to wear gloves to prevent your hands from getting burned. Also be careful not to let the pepper juice splash into your eyes. Soak the chopped chilies in water for 5 hours.

3. Spray after filtering

Filter the chili water with gauze, discard the chili skin, chili seeds, etc., then add 50 times the amount of clean water, and then put it into a spray bottle, and spray it directly on the branches and leaves where there are small black flies. The small black flies will be killed and fall to the ground. It feels so good!
