Natural Pesticide?
I started noticing an Aphid infestation in the bananas and this is something I want to put a clamp on before it gets out of hand… because Aphids spread diseases in bananas…
Asking a fellow bananero, he said that I should use some Ditane to get rid of the Aphids… I was looking for a more organic approach (i.e. one that doesn’t burn a hole in the wallet *snicker*) to the problem so I asked around and I found out that you can use garlic/pepper and detergent combination for pest control… hmmmm? I wonder which will do the killing? the detergent or the garlic/pepper combination?… hehehe…
The detergent is there to act as a binder… this it the first time I heard detergents being used as a binder as I am more familiar with the use of a sachet of shampoo *snicker*
Oh well, if it still doesn’t work, there’s always ditane…
