    Hi all,
    I'm a new organic gardener converter. As I've become more aware of the environmental hazard of chemicals in the garden setting. I'm trying to find new helpful information on daily basic to improve my garden as far as dealing with pests.

    I recall having seen/read an article somewhere about using cutting/chopping up mint, steep them to a tea for a day or so, then using the solution to spray on our plants to repel aphids and other little bugs in the garden. Have anyone ever tried this remedy? Does it work? Please share your thought.
