Homemade Insecticidal Soap Spray

Homemade Insecticidal Soap Spray 

1/4 cup grated soap, use real soap like Ivory or a Naptha based soap.
4 cups hot water, make sure that it is hot enough to melt the soap.

Mix soap into water until dissolved. I store mine in a mason jar.

To use the concentrate mix 1-2 teaspoons with 32 oz. (4 cups) of water in a spray bottle.
Shake to make sure its mixed well. Spray directly on the Aphids

This has been safe for all the plants that I have used it on. You can test it on a small set of leaves to make sure. I will be adding more Homemade garden sprays in the coming weeks.

Thanks to Tom Wentworth for this post.
