On TV, several years ago, I watched a gardening show where the host cooked up a batch of bug deterrent for his vegetable garden. I made some of it back then and it worked great...but now I can't remember the recipe.
I know it had tobacco juice, listerine, hot pepper juice, and some other stuff in it....
Anyone have a recipe like this they'd be willing to share with me?

I think you were probably watching Jerry Baker on PBS with his warlock recipes. He's frequently featured during fund raising specials. BTW, I'm surprised that the recipe didn't contain a sugar placebo. IMHO, there are very few people in this group who place much credence in his bug juice or other brews.

His potions actually work for me. Have used them for many years.

Caution is advised any time you use tobacco products around your tomatoes, though.
