1 part hydrogen peroxide to 4 parts water. I usually mix mine in a mason jar so I can use the lines on the side to track measurements. Plus that way I usually use it up because hp is light sensitive and degrades

What percentage hydrogen peroxide do you use? I use 3% but I don’t mix it with water and now I’m a little worried that’s way too much

I use 3% also. I bet it’ll be ok. I would just adjust next time. It won’t build up because when it breaks down it changes to water.

Hi, I’d this mixture poured unto the soil? Having this issue with gnats near my monstrera, birds of paradise and one of my palms. Currently, using ACV and dishwashing liquid in small ramekins as traps, but want to kill the gnats if they are in the soil.

And then dilute with water
