Organic Pesticide and Vegetable Wash

Organic Pesticide and Vegetable Wash, this homemade spray provides a safer and more economical way to wash produce and prevent herbs from having bugs.

Do you grow herbs? I do. I love being able to walk out on my porch and cut fresh herbs for my recipes. The more I cook, the more herbs I grow. And I always have some of these Herb Butters in the refrigerator!

Organic Pesticide and Vegetable Wash

These are my current collection: basil, mint, cilantro and parsley

I recently shared my Orange Mojito and a Strawberry Mojito that uses mint, but there are many other
cocktails recipes that you will want to try!

And, this is my basil. And where my problem started!

Look closely, see the holes? A tiny insect was on the basil!
Last year something ate my mint.

I knew I couldn’t spray any chemicals on the plants.
I have used this solution for years to clean fruits and vegetables that I grow and purchase
so I decided to see  if it would work.
It worked beautifully and cost a mere pennies to make!!
