The researchers first gathered all the materials needed to complete the experimentation. First washed‚ sliced‚ and pounded the radish tubers using the mortar and pestle. Then the researchers extracted it by using a clean strainer‚ strained and acquired the juice of the radish. After completing the three setups‚ the researchers sprayed it on the insects and observed what happened. They

One such example can be found in a new theory that
