I have garlic peels on hand all the time; allow me to tell you my grandmother’s secret.

I always have garlic peels on hand, thanks to my grandmother’s secret. Our grandparents knew the value of recycling in the household and gave leftover food new purpose. Garlic peels have unexpected uses beyond just seasoning food.

While culinary staples like garlic and onions add unique flavors to dishes, instead of tossing them out, our grandparents had a frugal tip for the peels left behind after using garlic in a meal.

They found another clever and inexpensive use for them. This grandmotherly wisdom extends to gardening, offering a simple yet effective method for plant protection.

Garlic possesses antifungal and antiparasitic properties, which can be harnessed through a DIY infusion.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Pour one liter of water into a saucepan

 

2. Add four garlic clove skins to the pot.

3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then simmer for about thirty minutes.

 

 

 

4. Once cooled, strain the liquid and transfer it into a spray bottle.

To protect plants from diseases, spray the infused liquid over the base and leaves of the plants. This natural remedy not only reduces waste but also provides a sustainable solution for your garden.

Additionally, silverfish aren’t particularly prolific. In her lifetime, the female typically lays fewer than 100 eggs, which may pay attention to cockroaches and other household pests and keep them away from my home.

Amazingly, these insects are nocturnal, don’t feed on human food, and don’t carry any diseases harmful to humans. While allergies may occasionally result from their excrement, this is uncommon.
