   Keep bugs away in a
   natural way!

 

Recipe for natural insect spray for your garden

  • You need a big pot (about 20 liter of content).

  • Then you take the leaves, flowers and fruit of the Magosa tree (it is a very bitter-tasting herb).You need about 2 kg of that.

  • Use a mortar and pestle to bruise the leaves, flowers and fruits.

  • Then you take lemon grass, also about 2 kg and you bruise the leaves too and cut it into pieces.

  • If you have any cheap quality tobacco you can add that too (Nat uses a package of 20 grams).

  • Add 20 liter of water.

  • Close the pot very good and leave it for about a week. Keep the pot tightly closed, because the smell is really bad!


After a week you fill a spray machine and spray the fluid over the plants.

This spray is very useful to keep bugs away that eat leaves. Grasshoppers do not like it either. You can apply the spray once every 2 weeks for a period of three months.


Because the bugs get used to the smell and the spray after a while, you make a new potion after three months. You can use any bitter and bad smelling plants.

And you?

If you have any ideas or suggestions we can use to keep bugs away, please let us know by sending an e-mail.

Runs 'N Roses is set up to support the Thai Child Development Foundation (TCDF) financially.

Many foundations have a lot of "overhead", such as salaries for staff, office rent, supplies, daily life costs, transport to and from projects and so on. If we would not have set up the Runs 'N Roses organisation, 50% of the given donations to the foundation would be spent on things like that. By staying in the bungalows of Runs 'N Roses, you will help the Thai Child Development Foundation in a constructive and lasting way. This will benefit all children involved with the foundation.
