After we had some very heavy rains I decided to have a look under the bird netting and discovered some caterpillars munching on my basil.

I immediately decided to make some vinegar bug spray to try and get rid of them. You have to take 1 part vinegar and 1 part water with a splash of dish soap. We’ll see how this goes zero because I really don’t like to use chemical sprays on my vegetable patch.

If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it so please feel free to make a comment below.

Nonno says puréed garlic with lemon and add vinegar and then you spray that in the soil and under the leaves. Other people have also suggested to try Eco Oil Spray from Bunnings.
