DIY Pest Spray:
8oz distilled water
20 drops Peppermint
20 drops Eucalyptus
15 drops Hyssop
15 drops Pine Spray directly onto plants and soil as desired or needed. You can also spray a sponge with this solution and clean the plant leaves. To deter mice, squirrels, etc., place a few drops of undiluted peppermint oil on a cotton ball and place it near your plants or on the perimeter of your garden.
DIY Mildew Spray:
4oz distilled water
20 drops Tea Tree
10 drops Lavender
10 drops Thieves Spray directly onto plants and soil. Plant leaves can be sensitive to this oil, so don’t over apply and avoid spraying in direct sunlight. If you need to apply to the leaves, spray onto a damp cloth and gently wipe the leaves as needed.
