Categories Homeopathy/Remedies

Time 3m

Yield 1 solution, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

3/4 cup water
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup sugar
2 banana peel

Steps:

Combine all ingredients in an empty gallon-sized jug with the top cut off.
Hang one solution in each of your fruit bearing trees - works at its best if you begin the treatments before the trees blossom.
Continue to use the treatment until the end of the fruit bearing season, replacing as often as neccesary.
(rain water will dilute the solution, and lots of bug will too - check it every few days).
