We have forgotten forever about harmful mosquitoes and flies in the house. A simple trick that helped get rid of them once and for all
The presence of insects in the house does not give anyone pleasure. Of course, if these are not pets in special terrariums. Mosquitoes, midges, flies not only irritate, but also bite. And it is also known that many of them are carriers of various diseases.
Some people use sticky tapes, but they tend to bite into your face or hair. Someone sets fire to special spirals, uses fumigators with plates or liquids. But it is difficult to say how harmful their effect on the body is. In very difficult situations, people use body sprays, dichlorvos, and other chemicals.
And I have long been using one simple secret that helps me get rid of annoying insects for a long time. First of all, it is safe for both humans and animals. Because simple, but environmentally friendly ingredients are used.
What do we need
I have repeatedly suggested getting rid of both insects and some animals with the help of folk remedies. And in our case, you need to purchase special essential oils.
The most unpleasant for insects are peppermint and geranium oils. You can use them separately or together.
How to use
Dilute 10-15 drops of mint oil and 5-6 drops of geranium oil in 2 cups of water. Pour into a home sprayer (pulverizer).
And we spray all the surfaces in the house. You don’t have to be afraid to overdo it - the oils have a very pleasant smell, and in addition to ridding the apartment of insects, you also freshen the air in the room.
We spray not only the room itself. We pay special attention to windows, window sills, mosquito nets, doors - all those places through which flies and mosquitoes enter the house.
We also spray the places where these insects accumulate - tables, carpets, curtains, ceilings. This should be done once every 3-5 days. And then you just forget about insects.
Hints
Note also that these oils are made from common plants. And if you have geraniums growing at home (by the way, one of the most unloved, but very useful flowers of Soviet women) or mint (which can also be brewed as a tea, sedative) - insects in the house will a little. But it is best to dry a few leaves of the plant. The aroma of the dried flower is much stronger and acts faster. You just need to spread the dried flowers in places where flies and mosquitoes like to gather the most.
