Good weather has only one disadvantage and that is mosquitoes, flies and various kinds of insects. In summer we cannot keep the windows closed all day, so we come up with all sorts of ways to keep insects out of the home.
Instead of short-term and harmful preparations we can prepare harmless natural remedies that are also much cheaper!
Vinegar, or apple cider vinegar
Both are effective if we pour vinegar onto a tray and place it somewhere on the floor in the apartment. It also works against ants if we coat the door frames and window frames.
Lemons and cloves
It is not only effective against insects, but also a decorative element and smells lovely. Cut a lemon and stick cloves into it. Place it in the center of the room.
walnut leaf
It repels flies and ants. Slice walnut leaves into a bowl of water and your problem is solved.
basil
It doesn’t have to be used only for cooking; if you plant basil on your windowsill, no insects will bother you.
cloves
Just grind the cloves and put them in a bowl anywhere in the apartment.
