Dear @actioncats One of my favorite fruits is avocado and it is also advised for me to eat since I have a health issue concerning my liver and avocado is the best fruit for it. Too bad, all our avocado trees at home died, maybe due to the intense heat last year caused by El Nino phenomenon. I'm glad seeing your avocado tree growing well.

To drive away ants near your avocado tree, you may try the chili pepper spray solution. It's a natural remedy against plant pests, including ant pests that pester our plants. It's easy to prepare. You just need at least 20 pieces of hot chili pepper (labuyo), 1 liter of water, and dishwashing liquid. Grind or blend the chili to get its puree, and add 1 liter of water, then pour a few drops of dishwashing liquid. Put some of the mixture into a spray bottle and spray through the ant hill and the tree trunk. Don't worry, it won't harm the tree. Just make sure you avoid direct contact with the solution. I hope it helps. 💚
