Steps to using cinnamon to repel pests on plants! π€ π«πͺ°π«π·οΈπ«π¦π«ππ«ππ« Spray method π€ β’ The reason for this method is because is penetrates the surface of the soil and goes beneath where pests live! β’ Put a few tablespoons of cinnamon in a spray bottle with distilled water β’ Mix and let it sit for 24 hours . β’ Dump and strain into a bowl and then pour it back into the mist bottle! β’ Use this to spray mostly the soils surface , you donβt have to go crazy with the leaves . β’ When it dries it appears powdery and light brown, like light cinnamon. So when itβs sprayed on leaves it makes them look weird . On the soil it blends in! Sprinkle method π€ β’ You can also just sprinkle cinnamon on top of the soil! Add a thin layer to the surface and it should do the trick. You may lightly dust leaves , or just the soil for the sake of appearance of the plant . Soil method π€ β’ Mix a few tablespoons of cinnamon into your soil mixture . Plant as usual :)
