Materials Needed:

Steps:
Secure the Banana: Tie the string around the end of the banana. If using a mesh bag, place the banana inside the bag first.
Choose the Location: Select a location where the banana will not interfere with the normal activities in your garden but is close enough to the plants that will benefit from increased pollination.
Monitor and Replace: Check the banana regularly and replace it once it has fully decomposed or if it begins to attract unwanted pests.
