Many modern summer residents have begun to forget about effective methods of combating aphids that our grandparents successfully used.

Few people remember that you can get rid of this dangerous pest with the help of one popular spice.

Landscape designer and agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh notes that you can protect your harvest with the help of ordinary ground red pepper.

How to make a spice-based remedy against aphids

It is extremely easy to prepare a working solution. First, measure out one liter of water and add a couple of packets of red pepper. The spice should weigh 50 grams.

Turn on the fire and cook the solution for a quarter of an hour. The flame intensity should be low.

Pour the product into a jar and wait 24 hours.

We dilute the concentrated composition with several liters of water (at least five) and add soap for stickiness.

Then you can proceed to the treatment itself. If the plants were attacked by aphids, the insect will not have a single chance.
