We are talking about pine or spruce needles, which have the ability to repel pests.

To get rid of pests, you will need a couple of handfuls of fresh pine needles, which you need to pour boiling water over and leave to infuse for two hours.

After this period, the resulting solution should be filtered and a couple of drops of liquid soap should be added to it. Due to household chemicals, the aphid remedy will stick better to the leaves of plants.

Pour the infusion into a spray bottle and apply to areas of plants affected by aphids.

For a better effect, it is recommended to add crushed garlic cloves to the infusion. The smell of this vegetable is also unpleasant for the pest.
