Is it feasible to kill eggs by putting flower soil in the microwave oven?

Putting flower soil in the microwave oven to kill eggs is theoretically feasible. Because the principle of microwave heating is that under the action of external alternating electric field, polar replicators of many substances frequently turn to rub against each other, so that electromagnetic energy is converted into heat energy.

When the flower soil is heated in the microwave oven, not only the heat energy can kill the eggs, but also the rapid rotation of the egg molecules (about the eighth power of 10 per second) destroys the life characteristics of the eggs and dies.

However, microwave ovens are generally used to heat meals. It is not hygienic to heat flower soil in microwave ovens, so it is not recommended to do so.

Extended data:

You can kill the eggs in the flower soil in the following ways:

First, the solar disinfection method.

Put the prepared nutrient soil on a clean cement floor or an iron plate, spread a thin layer and expose it to the sun. Generally, if you are exposed to the sun for two or three days, the insects inside will run away, and the eggs will almost die. If there is mold inside, it will die in large numbers. This method is the most commonly used and the simplest.

Second, the heating disinfection method.

You can find some flowerpots, such as an incubator, put the soil in, and pour a few pots of boiling water at one time, so that the eggs will be scalded and the mold will be completely killed, achieving the ideal disinfection effect.

Third, the drug disinfection method.

The collected soil is mixed with fungicides such as carbendazim, mancozeb and chlorothalonil. Then mix some granular pesticides in the soil and put them in a container for sealing. Generally, it will be sealed for 24-48 hours, and directly exposed to the sun after opening. After drying, it can be used for later use. Carbendazim and the like can play a bactericidal role, and putting pesticides can kill insects and eggs in the soil.
