Orange oil is a natural oil found in orange peels and in citrus peels in general. It has a strong smell and is what gives citrus fruits their distinctive scents depending on their type.
Scientists have recently discovered that orange oil has the ability to combat insects and agricultural pests, and that it can be used as a natural and safe organic alternative to some chemical pesticides that cause cancers and other diseases in humans, such as Alzheimer’s, liver cirrhosis, kidney failure, and other diseases.
The method of extracting orange oil from orange peels at home is easy and simple. We just collect the orange peels and put them in the mixture, adding an appropriate amount of water, then beat them well with the blender until the peels and water turn into a solution similar to liquid juice... After that, we filter this solution to get rid of it as much as possible. As much as possible from the organic remains present in the solution, using a cloth or a drinks filter... Then we will obtain an aqueous solution containing orange oil, which we can use directly as a spray on the plants, or we can keep the solution in the refrigerator until needed to use it.
Two important notes about the orange oil solution we made
The first note: This solution is very effective in combating all kinds of ants, especially termites
Second note: It is suitable to use a well-filtered orange oil solution as an air freshener with the scent of orange
