The use of tobacco products is deadly to humans. There’s really no question about it. Every day thinking people all over the world decide to kick the smoking habit. And many of them succeed! But with smoking cessation success comes a small problem; what to do with those leftover cigarettes?

It’s really hard to throw a pack of cigarettes that you paid upwards of four bucks for into the garbage. You sure don’t want to give those leftover cigarettes to your friends who are still smoking; you want your friends to quit smoking,What to do With Leftover Cigarettes After You've Quit  Articles too.

So…if you can’t throw them away and you can’t give them away, what CAN you do with those leftover cigarettes after you’ve kicked the smoking addiction?

Here’s a PLAN! The nicotine in those cigarettes is not only deadly to YOU. It’s deadly to other living creatures as well; living creatures like the bugs that plague your garden and your house plants.

Tobacco water has been used as an insecticide since the 1800’s. Tobacco water is absolutely deadly to most garden insects.

So….rather than using those cigarettes to kill yourself, you can use them to kill the bugs that are killing your plants.

Here’s how:

•    Remove the filter and paper from each cigarette and put the tobacco into a large pot of boiling water
•    Add six fresh chopped garlic pods and several crushed pods of the hottest chili you can find.
•    Bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
•    Reduce the heat and simmer for at least an hour. (You should probably do this outdoors or with all of the windows and doors open because there will be a strong and lingering odor.)
•    Next strain the solids out using cheese cloth.
•    Put the liquid in a spray bottle.

Apply it to indoor plants to kill aphids and other insects especially during winter months. You can use it on outdoor plants any time or the year. Spray the trunks of saplings to prevent girdling by larger animals during the winter months. The smarter animals will not come near tobacco which should be a lesson for humans.

KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! This is a highly toxic mixture that is deadly to children, pets and wildlife!
