Ethan figured he had waited long enough.. the mixture seemed cooled off enough to him. He got up from his stool to retrieve a strainer and a spray bottle, and as he did, he caught a glimpse of Minerva as she gave him a smile before leaving class. The boy returned a tentative smile to her retreating figure and watched for a moment as she walked away.

Pushing any lingering thoughts out of his mind, Ethan turned back to his finished minsecticide. Using the strainer, he poured the liquid into the bottle and screwed on the nozzle. He took a moment to finish cleaning up his work area and put the last of the equipment away. As he was part of the task force, the boy held onto the bottle and left the greenhouse as class was dismissed.

SPOILER!!: Herbology Journal
Minsecticide - Steps

1) Once your pot of water has begun to boil, start by adding the chrysanthemum and nettle tea leaves (try 10 of each). Stir occasionally.

2) As the colour of the water turns amber, add two generous pinches teaspoons of cayenne pepper, two tablespoons a generous drizzle of neem oil and a tablespoon splash of apple cider vinegar. Stir occasionally.

3) As the colour darkens, take a 1/2 cup each handful of fluxweed and knotgrass, then stir.

4) Take a whole garlic bulb, slice it in half (diffindo) then drop it (both halves) into the solution.

5) Add 3-4 whole dried lacewing flies and a 1/8 cup small (yes, thick) drizzle/plop of bubotuber pus.

6) Simmer, stir and leave to cool for about half an hour.

7) Once your Minsecticide has cooled, strain it into a spray bottle.
