Mustard powder can be used not only as a spice and preservative.
The product is often used in areas not related to cooking, such as gardening.
Dry mustard helps protect plants from pests and restore cleanliness to certain surfaces.
There are at least three cases where this product will come in very handy in a country house.
When to get rid of slugs
Mustard powder is an excellent remedy against gastropods.
It is enough to sprinkle mustard on the bed where the vulnerable crop grows. As a result, both slugs and snails will avoid this area.
When to protect fruit bushes
Dry mustard also copes with pests that pose a danger to berry bushes.
It is enough to pour drops of mustard powder solution on the plants. It is advisable to carry out the procedure at the beginning of summer.
To prepare the product, you need to add 100 grams of yellow bulk ingredient to a bucket of water and wait a couple of days.
The resulting solution must be passed through a filter surface, and then diluted with clean liquid by half.
When to treat a greenhouse
Dry mustard easily removes dirt from the walls of a greenhouse.
There is nothing complicated: you need to take a regular kitchen sponge, soak it in water, sprinkle it with mustard powder, and then wipe the dirty surface with this product.
