Hello Bobbie. I've seen many recipes for lawn food. The one including beer had:
1 can of beer
1 cup ammonia
1 can of soda (not diet/ sugar free) your
lawn needs the sugar
1/2 cup of dish soap (not antibacterial)
1/2 cup antiseptic mouth wash (gold type)
Mix this together in a large enough container.
Pour this magic potion into a hose end sprayer. Fill all the way. (32 oz.) Set the adjustable dial to 3 or 4 oz. and spray away. I don't know how large an area this will cover for a lawn. A typical hose end sprayer will dispense 20 gallons of product before you run out. So go easy at first. Don't use all of the product in a small area.

Using this formula every 3-4 weeks should fo you good, but always use your judgement regarding how much to apply and when. Making a concoction of chewing tobacco in an old nylon stocking and steeping it in a half gallon of water can be used in place of the mouth wash stated above. This will keep the harmful bugs out of your lawn. It will give then an upset tummy and not want anything to do with your lawn. This will also work with plants. Look up Jerry Green on the internet. He has many home remedies we used here in Michigan, he having been based here and did many shows on Saturday mornings. He was the best and his tonics worked. Good luck.
