Talkback: Preparing for drought in the garden

Lily beetle

, urghh ! On a recent tv gardening program, a lady who grew lilies commercially, advised a spray of garlic 'juice'. She didn't say any more than that so I don't know quantities or how to make up? Would growing galic near the lilies do the same? Has anyone by SilverFairy
