Pest repellant
Can arali seeds (neerium indicum) be used to make pest repellents?
Santha Kumari
Chennai
Yes, the seeds of neeerium indicum plants are good insect and pest repellents. You can powder the seeds and mix about 30 gm of the seeds in 10-12 litres of water along with some khadi soap solution and leave it overnight. The mixture can be sprayed the next day. This acts as an effective control against a wide variety of pests and infestations.
