Essential oil solution against insects
Formula: 630824 Difficulty level: beginner Shelf life: 7 days

A recipe based on a blend of essential oils effective in combating ants, aphids, caterpillars, fleas, cockroaches and spiders.

INGREDIENTS

Liquid soap base 5 g (1.5 tsp)
Peppermint essential oil 20 drops
Cedarwood Atlas essential oil 10 drops
Rosemary essential oil 10 drops
Lukewarm drinking water 250 ml

PREPARATION METHOD

Add the soap base and essential oils to a glass and mix well. Add the water, mix thoroughly, then transfer the resulting liquid to the dedicated bottle.

Recommended container: 250 ml Optima or Crystal bottle with trigger pump

USE

Spray liberally onto the face, back and trunk of leaves and onto the ground.

Repeat treatment every 7-10 days to keep pests at bay

Due to the minimal amount of soap used to incorporate the essential oils into the water, the formula is biphasic and separates over time. The bottle should be shaken well before application.
It is recommended to use the solution immediately after preparation. In case of a surplus remaining after use, the solution can be stored in the refrigerator for several days
