On today's 2 minute garden tip, I share how to kill insects instantly with dish soap spray! Did you know that soapy water is an effective insect control spray? While not fully understood, it is believed soapy water dries out an insect's exoskeleton, killing insects minutes after contact. This homemade insect control remedy can save your yard and garden from a pest infestation!
I use the following products* to control insects and grow vegetables in my vegetable garden:

True. One day after getting home from work my potato patch was stripped. My entomology kicked in and I knew it was Colorado potato beetle. My little girl and I both got a cool whip tub of dish soap and water. We hand picked them off and put them in the dish soap water. My tater patch was pretty big but we saved every hill! I live in northern Ohio! I was so relieved at harvest diggin time. We still did pretty good! It works.

I believe it works because it suffocates the bugs. Some bugs breathe through their skin or exoskeleton I think.

Try and use the most natural soap possible. I used dawn once and it was like a chemical attack on my plants. Also the more natural the soap the quicker it breaks down in the soil. Castile soap is best, but plenty of companies make very basic natural soaps.

It looks like he's killing beneficial assassin bugs; the legs are much thinner than the leaf footed nymphs. I was going to ask as well. Too many have the mentality to just kill everything that moves. When we should strive for a balance.

@2MinuteGardenTips
@2MinuteGardenTips Месяц назад
I'm sure it'll kill gnats, but the problem with gnats is there are so many of them, it would be very difficult to eliminate them with a contact killing spray. You must check your yard to eliminate all standing water. No puddles, no buckets or plant container drip trays collecting water, dump your birdbath if the water is old, etc.

Don't insects breath through small holes along their body? Soap then clogs up holes & prevents them from getting oxygen. Been using a pump weed sprayer armed with Dawn & water to take out wasp nests under eaves when they start forming. An RV washer hose attachment with soap spray is another good option. Going shirtless while battling the wasps makes it more of a fair fight. 😂
