Ingredients:
1 cup of vegetable oil
1 tablespoon of liquid soap
Approximately 4 cups (1 quart) of water
Instructions:
1. Mix together 1 cup of vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon of liquid soap in a jar. Shake well to combine, creating your aphid spray concentrate.
2. Transfer 2 tablespoons of the concentrate into a spray bottle using a funnel.
3. Fill the spray bottle with approximately 4 cups (1 quart) of water.
4. Give the bottle a gentle shake before each use.
5. Spray the mixture directly onto the plants, focusing on areas with aphids or other pests. This mixture won’t harm the plants but will suffocate the insects with the oil coating.
