        • Here are three effective recipes to combat spider mites (what internet tells yah) :

          1. Peppermint Oil Spray:

            • 1 quart (approximately 1 liter/0,26 Gallon) of warm water
            • 10-15 drops of pure peppermint essential oil
            • 2-3 cloves of fresh garlic, minced
            • 1 teaspoon of mild liquid dish soap Instructions: Mix all ingredients in a spray bottle, shake well, and spray onto affected areas of the plants. Repeat every 3-4 days until the infestation is controlled.
          2. Neem Oil Spray:

            • 1 quart (approximately 1 liter/0,26 Gallon) of warm water
            • 1-2 tablespoons of neem oil
            • 1 teaspoon of mild liquid dish soap Instructions: Mix neem oil and dish soap in warm water, shake well, and spray onto the affected areas. Repeat every 5-7 days until the infestation is eliminated.
          3. Vinegar Solution:

            • 1 quart (approximately 1 liter/0,26 Gallon) of warm water
            • 1 tablespoon of white vinegar
            • 2-3 cloves of fresh garlic, minced
            • 1 teaspoon of mild liquid dish soap Instructions: Mix all ingredients in a spray bottle, shake well, and apply to the infested plants. Repeat every 3-4 days until the spider mites are eradicated.
