bio pesticides

HI Shaji,

For centuries, gardeners have used home-made mixtures of tobacco and water as a natural pesticide to kill insect pests. ust as tobacco is not good for humans, tobacco spray was once a commonly used pesticide for killing pests, caterpillars and aphids. To make, simply take one cup of organic tobacco (preferably a brand that is organic and all-natural) and mix it in one gallon of water. Allow the mixture to set overnight. After 24-hours, the mix should have a light brown color. If it is very dark, add more water. This mix can be used on most plants, with the exception of those in the solanaceous family . You can use soap as an adjuvnct.
