Garbage Enzyme

This is the formula to start your very own 'Homemade Enzyme'. It's easy (I think) to make and though it may seem and sound disgusting, (fermented fruits ain't sexy) but let's do something for our Mother Earth. The formula I got is courtesy of Just Life Shop.

Ingredient: Sugar (Brown Sugar used in putu mayam type) Ratio 1
Fruit Dregs (skin) Ratio 3
Water Ratio10

Example: 1kg of Sugar + 3kg of fruit dregs + 10litres of water.

You can use vegetables but according to my sister, vegetable enzyme stinks! So, you have been warned!

Here's how to do it:
1. Use an air-tight plastic container. NEVER USE METAL OR GLASS CONTAINER.
2. Dilute sugar in water, follow by adding fruit dregs.
3. Leave some space in the container for fermentation.
4. Close it tight.
5. During the 1st month, gases will be released during fermentation process. Release the pressure built up in the container to avoid rupturing.
6. Push the floating garbage downward every once in a while.
7. Place at cool, dry and well ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight. Let ferment at for least 3 months before use.

There you have it! It may sound disgusting and not very pleasant to smell but it's very useful! I've tried it as insect repellent and it works! Now we spray our rooms with enzyme before we go to bed and no mosquitoes ever kacau our sleep.

Try to make a few litres. Give it to friends and families. Let's do something that can cut down on the use of household chemicals.
