Hot pepper wax, sold in garden centers or make your own. Take three of the
hottest peppers you can find on the market and blend them in a blender with
about two cups of water. Strain it through a sieve and add the liquid to a
gallon of water. Spray plants. Don't get it on hands or arms or in eyes.


* Or on your lips, palate, tongue, tonsils, oesophagus or intestine.
