The eucalyptus oil used in this recipe discourages pests like aphids, whiteflies, and spider mites from infesting your plants, while the canola oil suffocates them and prevents them from feeding on the plants.

Garden Spray can also be used as a preventative measure to keep your garden free of pests. It is easy to make and use, making it an ideal solution for pest management in your garden.
