Repellent Recipe
by Carol Martino
Ingredients:
o 1 whole Spanish onion
o 1 jalapeno pepper
o 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
Directions:
o Chop up the onion and the pepper.
o Mix together and boil in 2 quarts of water for about 20 min.
o Let cool, and strain the water through a cheesecloth.
Using a garden sprayer, spray any area outside where wild animals or even neighborhood pets are being a
nuisance. This probably will not work for birds (birds do not have a sense of
smell.)
This process may have to be carried out for a period of 2 weeks to ensure
success.
This mixture is non-toxic and it will not harm any animal, but will succeed in
keeping them away.
