Stress from mint oil

feyero

Hello,

Yesterday I sprayed a mint oil solution on my fall winter vegetables, my strawberry plant, and my basil to keep pests away. However, today they look wilted and brown. Obviously, I didn't dilute the oil enough. Many of the leaves still have some green left in them. Am I better off pruning those that have browned off of the plants or should I give them a chance to bounce back with no further oil sprays for awhile?

Thanks!
