Do you want to get rid of insects in your home immediately and without the use of chemical repellents? It’s everyone’s desire, especially now that summer is just around the corner and these pesky little animals are starting to invade our homes.
flies, aphids, mites, mosquitoes, cockroaches, etc. They destroy our homes and don’t leave us alone for months! Fortunately, there is a simple but effective remedy to get rid of them in a few minutes: read below.
During this time, more and more people are cooking bay leaves: here’s why!
Here’s how to make an all-natural (and very fragrant for us humans) repellent that will rid your home of unwanted insects in just a few minutes.
Boil a liter of water in a saucepan, then add 15 bay leaves and 10 cloves. Cook the two ingredients together for a few minutes. When the liquid has cooled, pour it into a spray bottle (the kind used to vaporize plants). Spray in all areas of the house where you notice the presence of insects, regardless of the room. You can do it in the bathroom, kitchen, pantry, or wherever you want, even every day. The preparation is completely natural and has no contraindications, so it is safe for humans and pets. If you want, you can add a few mint leaves to enhance the repellent effect of the product.
As you can see right away, the smell it gives off is good for humans, but it’s not good for the insects that only hope to escape through the smell.
You can also use bay leaves to keep insects away!
There is also a valid alternative to the method we just proposed: why not give it a try? It consists of harnessing the power of the bay leaf alone, without adding cloves.
All you have to do is burn a few leaves and place them in a saucer along with some mint leaves. Place the saucer in the areas most infested with insects and let it do its job. You will see that the insects will disappear in a few minutes.
In addition to the repellent effect, both methods that we have shown you are also an excellent way to perfume the rooms of your home without using deodorants with chemical ingredients. Basically a double effect and very useful without spending a single penny!
Remember that it is always better for us and the environment to rely on natural remedies than artificial ones, which always have contraindications.
