4 types of effective mosquito, flies, and insect repellent

HƯƠNG SƠN (T/H) |

Many families have come to crops both to beautify the space and to naturally repel insects.

Environmental experts assess that many plants containing strong essential oils are capable of producing mosquitoes, flies, and distant pests without the need for chemicals.

Lemon juice

Lemon is a popular choice thanks to its ability to catch strong mosquitoes. The citral essential oil and geraniol in lemongrass have a characteristic aroma that mosquitoes are afraid of. Just place a few lemongrass pots in a window, balcony or plot lemongrass in the corner of the house to reduce mosquitoes significantly.

Silver Ha

According to some studies from American universities, menthol essential oil in mint helps hinder the orientation of flies and cockroaches. Growing mint in the kitchen or near the trash can help limit the smell and repel insects effectively.

Basil

Basil is not only a familiar spice but also the "squartering" of mosquitoes. The spicy, strong aroma of eugenol essential oil makes mosquitoes uncomfortable. Place a small pot in the bedroom or living room to both create a pleasant scent and help prevent mosquitoes.

lavender

Xaverine has been shown to repel mosquitoes thanks to the ingredient linalool. The light, relaxing scent also helps reduce stress. Planting a small pot at the entrance or using a dry lavender bag hanging in the closet helps avoid insects while still creating a pleasant aroma.
