There are several homemade insecticides that you can make with natural ingredients to protect your plants from pests without resorting to chemicals. Here are some easy and effective recipes:

1. Garlic insecticide
Garlic is a natural insect repellent and has antibacterial and antifungal properties.

Recipe: Crush 3 cloves of garlic and mix them with 1 liter of water. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight. Then, strain it and add 1 teaspoon of neutral soap to increase effectiveness. Spray the mixture on affected plants, especially on the underside of leaves where pests usually hide.
2. Potassium soap (or castile soap) insecticide
Potassium soap or castile soap is a safe and gentle way to eliminate insects such as aphids, mealybugs and mites.

Recipe: Mix 1 tablespoon of liquid castile soap (or potassium soap) with 1 liter of water. Spray the mixture on the affected plants, making sure to cover the leaves, stems and roots if possible. The soap dissolves the membranes of the insects and eliminates them without harming the plants.
3. Chili and pepper insecticide
The combination of chili and pepper is an excellent insect repellent.

Recipe: Mix 1 tablespoon of chili powder or red pepper with 1 liter of hot water. Let it rest for a few hours and strain it. Add 1 teaspoon of neutral soap so that it adheres better to the plants. Spray the mixture on the plants, especially where pests are found. The spiciness irritates insects and scares them away.
4. Neem Oil Insecticide
Neem oil is a natural insecticide that fights a wide variety of pests and also has fungicidal properties.

Recipe: Mix 2 teaspoons of neem oil with 1 liter of water and 1 teaspoon of neutral soap. Spray it on the affected plants, covering all the leaves well, including the underside. This insecticide is effective against mites, aphids, whiteflies, mealybugs and more.
5. Alcohol insecticide (isopropyl alcohol)
Isopropyl alcohol is very effective at eliminating pests such as scale insects and mites

I lived in the northern part of Nigeria for more than two and half decades, here are the foods I miss so much;

- Dambu nama or kaji: Shredded and spiced dried meat. When you pour these over your rice ehh.

- Lettuce salad: It's usually a mixture of sliced lettuce, tomatoes, onions, suya spice and oil. You will mix all up. If you want, add shredded meat or chicken.

- Wara: it's made from soyabeans and fried. Then spiced with yaji. Wayooooo

- Dan wake: Dumplings made from beans. It's served sprinkled with oil and yaji. You would think it's meat

- Fura da nono: Gotten from cows. There was this lady that sells at the front of my mom's shop those days. I would buy, add peanuts, banana and honey and blend until creamy. Wallahi dadi gari shi.

- Waina: I had the best in FCE Zaria kaduna state. When I discovered they made the best, I bought everyday. I preferred suya spice sprinkled on it. Absolutely yummy.

- Kilishi: They make the best, no cap. Granddad always asked for it whenever we traveled. My family love it.

- Tuwo masara: We always mixed it with cassava. Pairs well with any Nigeria soup. Try it.

- Gurasa: it's a flat bread, oiled and rubbed with suya spice. You can have them with cabbage salad and chicken suya.

- Suya: The northerners makes the best

I left the north, but the north did not leave me
