							Safe Insect Spray: 3 Homemade Pro-Green Sprays

Global warming as a consequence of our wanton pollution trends has put a
scare in everyone’s life, not least world governments. Most of the practices
we had for long taken as standard have turned against us with an urgent
appeal for change. A while ago, the common trend in dealing with insect
infestations was to get a chemical insect spray from the local store. The
more deadly the insect spray always often meant the more desirable it was.
Today however, any spray we use must first be criticized on its effect to
the environment and its sensitivity to the safety of people and other
organisms in the area of use. In other words, an insect spray must
necessarily be eco-friendly to gain acceptance and wide usage in today’s
society.

Yet very few of these so-called eco-friendly insecticides are really 100%
safe. Most have adverse effects to the human respiratory system as well as
endangering the places we live with numerous toxic chemicals. The most
plausible alternative for most pro-green homes has been to make their own
insect spray from harmless substances and compounds readily available from
the kitchen cabinet. When widespread insects infestation has been noted,
such as of aphids, ladybugs and honeybees, some homemade pro-green
sprays have proofed effective, safe and cheap. Although most do not kill
the insects completely, they dissuade their infestation and force such insects
to run away. Other homemade sprays are helpful in keeping the insect’s
population under control.

The first of these homemade pro-green sprays is the natural insecticidal
soap. This can be bought at garden centre or mad at home. To make it,
you should mix some mild dish detergent with water and then fill the
solution into a spray bottle. Shake the solution and spray it to the infested
areas or plants. This process should be repeated often, especially after
some rains, until the insects’ infestation reduces considerably.

The second homemade pro-green insect spray is the garlic spray. To make
the garlic spray, peel some garlic cloves and blend them with the kitchen
blender until they are finely mixed with the water solvent. The water should
be of a dark orange color, so add as many cloves as will take to make a
strong solution. You should first blend the garlic with some little water and
then add the water to make the diluted but still strong solution. Whirl the
solution around for about three minutes. You can then sieve the solution
using a kitchen sieve, a pantyhose or cheesecloth before transferring it to
the spray bottle. Once done, spray it to the infested areas or plants and
repeated the process until the insects’ infestation reduces considerably.

The third homemade pro-green insect spray is the pepper spray. This is
made and used in exactly the same way as the garlic spray is. The pepper
is blended and then mixed with water. The solution is then sieved and
transferred to a spray bottle and you can then spray the infested areas
repetitively. For all these three types of homemade pro-green insect spray
solutions, the leftover spray can be stored in a refrigerator for a week or
so before being sprayed again. After a week however, it is wise to discard
the remains in a compost pile and making a fresh solution for optimal
effectiveness.
