Spray the perimeter of the yard or area where you DON'T want the animals.
Repeat this every other day and also after a rain because this product is 100% biodegradable and is broken down quickly & organically. The animals will become trained to stay away from the area after visiting the area every other day during that three-week period.
You may have to repeat this cycle IF a new animal comes into your area. Spray this strong mix TKO a distance away from where you want the animals to stay away (20 feet - 20 yards away) and you can also apply this around the plants or garden itself.
FULL STRENGTH
• Repels rodents – soak a rag or sponge with TKO and place in area that needs protection.
• Kills weeds and grass – use caution so that you don’t kill wanted plants. Also, see vinegar herbicide formula from The Dirt Doctor (on other side)
SPECIFIC APPLICATIONS
Eliminate skunk odor: Spray area with 2 - 6 oz. Orange TKO per gallon of water, depending on the severity of the situation. If you know the area that was directly sprayed, spray strong mix of 10 - 20 oz per gallon of water. If possible, rinse with water after allowing to sit for 3 - 5 minutes to emulsify. Eliminates the odor - doesn't just cover it up!
Weed Control
Vinegar Herbicide Formula from The Dirt Doctor (Howard Garrett):
1 gallon of 10% vinegar
1 oz. Orange TKO
1 tsp. liquid soap or other surfactant
Add molasses at 1 Tbsp. per gallon to the vinegar formula
Do not add water
Feeding plants (d’imonene is an important nutrient for plants):
Add ¼ - ½ fluid oz. (1½ tsp. – 1 Tbsp.) of TKO to 1 gallon of water. Foaming naturally occurs to release d'limonene to the plant, which allows the plant to absorb nutrients more freely.
Special Wash for Roses, other Ornamental Plants and Orchards
1 gallon spring water
½ tsp. Orange TKO
¾ Tbsp. vinegar
1 Tbsp. Epsom salts
Less Delicate Flowers and Shrubs
1 gallon spring water
1 tsp. Orange TKO
1 Tbsp. vinegar
1 Tbsp. Epsom salts
Vegetable Gardens, Shrubs, Bushes and Trees
1 gallon spring water
1 Tbsp. Orange TKO
1 Tbsp. vinegar
Spray once or twice weekly – can increase bloom and enrich foliage. Helps keep plants clean and free of pests.
