If you want a simple, natural, easy to make and NON-TOXIC bug spray, check this out!
This works best if you buy a squirt bottle (I’ve seen these for $1 at target, IKEA, big lots…so you shouldn’t have trouble finding a cheap one). Then add EQUAL parts of:
- Liquid Dish Detergent (any kind)
- Gin
- Vinegar
Just mix the ingredients along with the same amount of water (if in the squirt bottle, you can just shake it up with the top on tight).
Example: In a 24 oz squirt bottle, add: 4 oz liquid dish detergent, 4 oz Gin, 4 oz Vinegar and 12 oz of water.
Then spray where ever you have a bug problem. This works really well with stopping those annoying ants. We used it out by our pool to get rid of all the ants last summer and it worked great! Plus, since it is non-toxic, I didn’t mind letting my 3 year old spray it, or spraying it near the garden.
Not only is it all natural and non-toxic, but it is also much cheaper than buying expensive bug spray.
This was the main bug spray we used growing up and my mom also told me that it works great to get rid of that pesky grass and weeds that grow between the sidewalk cracks.
