Answers:
flowers that attract beneficial bugs (ladybugs are best)...they will get rid of "bad" bugs.

cayenne pepper
lemon rind
beer
onion plants
marigolds
garlic... will repel GOOD bugs too, so be careful.

I would be careful combining ingredients because each ingredients has a particular formula for use...you may end up killing your plants, hurting your soil and removing all your beneficial bugs too.


garlic... ceyanne... onions... mostly garlic. u can use it as spray for plants & to keep pets away from plants.. more the better.

i've used it & it's worked on plants.. trying it on my pup rt now to keep him AWAY from my outdoor plants.
orange peel !
Citronella Oil.
