Reviews

Black aphid wound up on the cucumbers. Leaflets turned, dark spots appeared, the plant was in danger of death. A garden in the country, I did not see the beginning of all this. When I arrived again after a week, I was simply horrified. I talked with a neighbor, she advised a vinegar solution. Diluted in water, it took me 200 ml to a bucket. Sprayed from a bottle with special care. Damaged leaflets had to be removed. A week later, all my cucumbers came to life. From that moment I spray cucumbers every year for prevention.

The aphid attacked currant. The leaves spun, turned black, on the reverse side I noticed small, green pests. Treated each bush with vinegar and soapy water. Fairy helped me out well. Some people prefer to plan household soap - a natural product, but I did not have it at that time in the country. A week later, the currant was clean, not a single new twisted leaflet.

Svetlana, St. Petersburg

Vinegar against aphids is the simplest, safest, effective remedy.It does not require special efforts during processing, does not worsen well-being, does not affect the development of plants, is present in every house.

If the result is not as expected, you can use other folk remedies or purchase at the store one of the popular insecticides.
