Description
The development of an insect repellent utilizing soaked tobacco water involves extracting active compounds from tobacco leaves by soaking them in water. These compounds, including nicotine, are known for their insecticidal and repellent properties. The soaked tobacco water is then filtered and tested for effectiveness against various insect pests. The natural repellent provides an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic chemicals, offering a safer option for both humans and the environment. This tobacco-based insect repellent can be applied in agricultural settings or used for personal protection against insects.
