Some of you might have been dealing with pests in your house, whether ants, mosquitoes, or flies. These get worse during spring or summer, and they can be troublesome. I suffer terribly from mosquito bites, and I can’t stand them. They can also transmit different diseases that can harm everyone in our house. I know you want to protect yourself and your family too. So, I looked on the internet to find a solution I could use at home to kill these insects. Luckily, I found this recipe that works like magic! If you don’t like chemicals in your household like me, this effective homemade bug repellant spray by Natural Cures is perfect for you.
As explained in the video, rain and warm temperature during summer, attract mosquitoes. The reason is that they are most active at temperatures above 80 degrees. Now, let’s go on with the ingredients. This powerful spray uses cloves, bay leaf, and vinegar. Cloves are known for their insecticidal properties, which is eugenol. It keeps mosquitoes and ants away with its powerful antiseptic and bactericide. Bay leaf, on the other hand, has a specific odor that frightens insects and prevents them from reproducing which is similar to the unpleasant smell of vinegar. Spray this solution in your house, and 1 hour later, you’ll never see these bugs again.
