Quick Garden Tip #1

Mix 1/2 cup neem oil with 2 tsp aritha powder and 1 tablespoon of liquid dishwashing soap in 1 quart boiling water. Shake and transfer to a spray bottle when cool. Use the solution to spray house plants as well as outdoor lawn/plants. Most insects will find this unpalatable and leave your plants alone.
