The hot summer days are approaching, whose major drawback is the amount of biting insects that feed on our blood. One of these species is the mosquito, which is especially common in damp places such as near pools, barrels, bodies of water, and in damp forests. If you know that you fight mosquitoes every year and can’t get rid of them, you are surely looking for other ways to prevent them. This method will definitely be helpful to you.
Mosquito invasion
In summer mosquitoes appear everywhere. Even such quantities of mosquitoes that they become annoying, unbearable, and prevent us from fully enjoying the summer. Mosquitoes occur wherever there is something even slightly sweet and good to eat, but also where they prefer moist air. If you leave juicy fruit on the table, the table will soon be full of mosquitoes. Mosquitoes not only cause very itchy and irritating bites, they can also bring many diseases that we may struggle with for a long time. Stores offer a wide range of industrially produced products that are supposed to repel mosquitoes. Unfortunately, they are full of chemicals that are not suitable for contact with humans. Besides, you will find only a very small number of truly effective commercially produced preparations.
Homemade way to repel mosquitoes
There is a much cheaper and more environmentally friendly method. In addition, this homemade method doesn’t work only on mosquitoes, but can also rid you of annoying flies that may appear everywhere as well. First, prepare a bowl, vinegar, and cling film. Fill the bowl with about three centimeters of vinegar, cover it with cling film, and make holes in it. Place the prepared bowl somewhere where mosquitoes and flies like to fly. The vinegar will attract them, so they will get in, but the cling film will prevent them from getting out. When there are too many drowned insects in the bowl, simply dispose of the solution with the bodies and pour in a new one.
