Take a sachet of baking powder and dissolve it in a liter of water.
Once fully dissolved, transfer the solution to a spray bottle.
Spray this concoction on the affected plants – both on leaves and the soil. The bedbugs will be deterred by this solution, ensuring your plants remain unharmed.
Baking powder, with its innate properties, not only repels the bedbugs but also prevents future infestations.
Other Natural Alternatives to Combat Bedbugs:
Garlic Spray: Dissolve a garlic clove in a liter of boiling water. Let it steep in the refrigerator for a week, then strain and transfer to a spray bottle. The potent smell of garlic is a strong deterrent for bedbugs.
Diatomaceous Earth: Available at garden centers, this natural remedy can be sprinkled around the garden, in quantities depending on the severity of the infestation.
Herb Solutions: Bedbugs dislike strong smells. Consider making sprays based on rosemary, basil, or sage. These herbs not only keep the bugs at bay but also add a pleasant aroma to your garden.
By employing these natural remedies, you’re not only ensuring a bedbug-free garden but also maintaining a chemical-free, eco-friendly environment. Happy gardening!
