How to Fight Pests with Mandarin Peel
Prevention in the garden
It is worth noting that it is important to dry the peel well so that it can be stored properly. Fill a small jar (no more than half a liter) with the peel.
We dilute this amount of the product with a bucket of water and wait 24 hours. Then we need to pour the composition into a large saucepan, put it on the stove and simmer after boiling for 15 minutes.
When the product reaches room temperature, it needs to be filtered and fortified with 30 grams of urea. After that, you can start spraying.
This method has proven itself to be excellent in the fight against codling moth, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer.
The procedure can be repeated on a regular basis until the garden crops begin to bloom.
