Natural Bug Exterminator for Fruit Trees image

Insects and their larvae can do damage to your fruit tree, from eating the foliage to spoiling the fruit. Fortunately, you don't have to resort to harsh, harmful chemicals to protect your fruit trees from nasty critters like moths and fruit flies. The original recipe came from Tielle Webb, on E How.com

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 gallon plastic jug
3/4 cup(s) water
1 cup(s) white vinegar
1 cup(s) white sugar
2 - banana peels
- twine or sturdy cord
- craft knife or similar cutting tool

Steps:

  • 1. Slice off the top quarter of the plastic jug using the craft knife or scissors. Punch 4 holes near each corner or in four even spots round the jug so that you will be able to hang the jug with the twine or cord.
  • 2. Make sure the sugar and vinegar are well combined. Slice the banana peels into thin strips and place them in the jug with the vinegar mixture.
  • 3. Pour the water into the jug and stir until thoroughly combined. Cut two lengths of twine and thread it through the holes in the plastic jug in a criss cross formation. Hang the jug from a sturdy branch of your fruit tree.
  • 4. Bugs will be attracted to the scent and meet with their end in the vinegar mixture.
  • 5. Tips and Warnings: Replace the repellent when you notice multiple bugs in it, or if you have had recent rains, as the rain will dilute the mixture.

Time 3m

Yield 1 solution, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

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).
