DIY Orange Peel Pesticide

Natural pest control at home and in the garden is safer for our families and pets.

Orange rinds contain two main properties that repel insects.

Limonene  is found in several major commercial insect repellents.

Orange peels  also contain linalool which will destroy fleas, ticks and mites.

Limonene repels several insects including flies, fire ants, and fleas.

Once limonene comes into contact with the insects its suffocates them.
