  • 2 liter bottle with a lid

  • 1 liter tap water



Instructions:


1. Mix ½ teaspoon liquid dish detergent and 1 cup vegetable oil into a 2 liter bottle.


2. Place the lid on the bottle and shake the ingredients until they are blended.


3. The texture of the ingredients will begin to change. The vegetable oil is recommended because it is derived for plants will not harm them. Pests do not like the taste of soap and especially on their food.


4. Remove the top from the bottle and add 1 liter of water from the tap.


5. Replace the lid on the bottle and shake the ingredients once again.
