Can Cucumbers Really Keep Wasps Away From Your Garden?
By KELLY CATLIN
Instead of waiting for wasps
to damage your garden or possibly invade other parts
of your property, grab some cucumbers and use this simple hack to keep them away.
Slice your cucumbers and put them around your garden or wherever you notice wasps. You can also place them on aluminum foil since a chemical reaction occurs that wasps don’t like.
It's believed that something in the peel of a cucumber repels wasps, most likely the acidity, which also helps deter a variety of other pests from your garden, including slugs.
