Here is my recipe for an organic treatment for annoying insect pests - I donīt actually know if it kills them, but they certainly hate it and clear off - doesnīt hurt the plants either, unlike some chemical insecticides. And most importantly, it isnīt toxic to any stoner!!
Put a litre of water in a pan, grate in about an ounce of toilet soap (borrow wifeīs/mumīs cheese grater), the more perfumed the better. Crush about 6 cloves of garlic and add. Boil for 10 minutes, or until soap is completely dissolved. Allow to cool, strain liquid into a 1 litre spray bottle.
Zap them varmints !! Wash treated plants off with plain water before harvesting.
Hope you don't mind the edit. I have something very similar and didn't feel like stickying TWO good recipes...lol Pretty much the same thing except that I add pepper flakes and clove. I noticed that every organic repelant I ever bought had a strong odor of clove, hence the reason for my addition. Not to mention most pests hate pepper flakes as well. Quote:
