Must be useful as soaps are often mentioned, and easy to find at hand if needed quickly. I have read good things about milk which altho sounded surprising apparently can work great too. Altho someone mentioned the milk had contributed to a mold problem. Avoiding the flowers seems pretty hard to do with a sprayer, or mine at least, of course you would try to avoid blasting them but I'd imagine they would still get sprayed - but I guess as long as the intention is there, haha.
Wet napkins, qtips and time.... lots of time
There are milk-based soaps? Anyways...
At first thought, I was doubtful of using milk as a pesticide. My logics-tree started with "it goes sour quickly", and then branched out. Then.. My logical paths continued to fire...... In Sweden, we have something that can only be translated to "sour milk", it is called "filmjölk" here. ( Filmjölk - Wikipedia )
It is a thick thick version of milk, fermented milk. Which is absolutely booming with good bacteria. Bacteria...Yeah..
After a bit of research.. .Milk, or types of it, might not be such a bad idea!
Hope all is well with you this weekend!
