In war, or more precisely in the fight against aphids, as they say, all means are good.

Some summer residents rely on the help of green soap, others take up arms with bitobaxacillin or resort to tobacco dust.

And if all the listed methods can be classified as traditional, then such a “drug” as Coca-Cola is included in the list of extraordinary, but surprisingly effective means.

The effectiveness of carbonated drinks is explained by the fact that cola is a rather acidic drink.

If you dilute Coca-Cola correctly and use the resulting solution to spray your crops, gardeners and vegetable growers claim that after 2 treatments you will be done with aphids forever.

It's finally time to share the perfect proportions.

To prepare an effective solution, you will need 100 ml of carbonated drink and 1 liter of water.

Please note: eradicating aphids alone is not enough. If you want to never see the parasite in your property again, you will also have to fight the ants that carry new pests.
