- 1). Pour one quart of water into a large spray bottle.
- 2). Add 1.5 tsp. of 100% neem oil to the spray bottle. Be sure to read the ingredients on your container of neem oil to make sure it is made from pure neem. If there are added ingredients, they may cause irritation for your plants or pets.
- 3). Add about 1/3 tsp. of biodegradable soap to the bottle. Soaps such as Dr. Bronner's or Biokleen dish soap work well, as they contain only natural ingredients that will not irritate your plants or pets as long as they are used in small amounts. The soap is added to the solution to help the neem oil distribute evenly over your plants or your pet's coat.
- 4). Place the lid on the bottle and shake the mixture to mix the ingredients thoroughly.
- 5). Spray liberally on pets that have fleas or plants with any kind of insect infestation. Repeat the spraying once a week.
