You can also use, CDN Thistle, Stinging nettle rhubarb, Tansy, Onion, Galic
and horseradish.

You can also use a dead bug tea ( I love this one ~Martha)
I cup of dead bugs, squashed and marinated and strained to make one gal.

Personal Comment:
By the time you have enough dead bugs to make enough for a 50x50 garden, you
won't have any bugs to spray.

BUT none of the above work on root bugs like cutworm, wireworm or termites.
