    natural pesticides

    i've just planted some wormwood seeds [artemisia absinthium, the shit they put in absinth] as they are reputed to be a natural pesticide which you have to prepare and then spray on your plants. does anyone know of any others?

    natural pesticides

    Lets see.

    Diatomaceous earth

    Tobacco

    Habanero chile

    Indian neem tree seeds

    I believe the Cycad palm can be used to make a mosquito repellent.

    Catnip- But it will attract any cat in the area.

    Natural pest control is easy. Wish more people would do it.:jointsmile:

    I found one at home dePOT.
    It's a Raid product and comes in a blue container with yellow on it.
    It is only pyrethrins, without the activators, so while you might say that it would be less effective, it is also FAR less harmful, as the activators are fairly nasty chemicals.
    I would suggest fogging twice with that stuff, maybe 3-4 days apart, to try and REALLY knock everything down.

    you really want to go into flower with your bug probs FIXED as treating a flowering plant with pesticides can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.

    i wasnt thinking that they were vegetables foxysox, only which ones do the compare to for treatment purposes. its just i had read that trating an infestd plant was ok to do if the pesticide was for use on eddibles.
