Cinnamon, lavender, peppermint extracts mixed with hot thai chili oil, and very warm water. Add a dash of organic dish soap(Dr. bronners)

For one gallon....
2 tbs or 10 ml of each extract
1/4 c or about 60 ml of hot thai chili oil
1 gal of very warm water
dash of dish soap

Mix well!!!!!

I use it on earwigs, spiders, pill bugs, slugs, snails, aphids.

WHERE did you get that recipe ?? Have you figured the cost for a gallon of it ? Sounds like too much unless you own an herbal store ! Seriously, how much ?

Well, not exactly sure but I came a crossed it researching organic gardening about 4-5 years ago. At lease thats how long I have been using it in the garden.

I pay around $55 for it all which I can do about 15 gal. or so. Thats about $4 a gal.

You can buy ed rosenthal zero tolerance witch is about $130 for a QT.
