An infusion based on celandine is prepared as follows. Take a five-liter container and fill it one-third with weeds, which must first be crushed.

Pour boiling water over the celandine and leave to infuse for 6-7 hours.

After infusion, the liquid must be carefully filtered and sprayed on the plants. As a rule, just one procedure is enough to get rid of pests.
