- Dilute the neem oil: Mix one teaspoon of neem oil with one quart of warm water and a few drops of dish soap. Shake well to ensure it’s thoroughly mixed.
- Apply to the plants: Use a garden sprayer to apply the neem oil solution to the plants. Make sure to spray both the tops and undersides of the leaves and the stems. Avoid applying neem oil in direct sunlight or during the hottest part of the day, as this can cause leaf burn. Applying in the evening is the best time, as it will allow the treatment to absorb by the plant. Also, do not use neem oil in extremely hot or cold temperatures. And do not apply to any plants that are stressed due to drought, overwatering, or recently repotted.

Please Note: Neem oil can be harmful to bees and other beneficial insects, so avoid spraying it when flowers are in bloom. Also, test a small area of your plant before applying the neem oil solution to the entire plant to make sure it does not cause any damage or discoloration.
