What are the effective ways of combating mosquitoes? Their presence in summer can effectively make time spent in the garden and not just there. Instead of reaching for expensive and often ineffective means, try a simple and natural trick.
Like pliers and burns from the sun, they are one of the dark sides of the summer. In Slovakia we encounter mainly the type of Culex Pipiens, ie with the popular “buzzing mosquito”. Many people are looking for information about what repels them. The simplest solution seems to be insecticides, but their use may have a negative impact on our health. A safer and cheaper alternative will be to create an unpaid duet – coffee deposits and cinnamon.
What mosquitoes do not like? They will keep on
Cinnamon and coffee are products known for their aromatic and strong aroma. It is such fragrances that mosquitoes do not like. They are simply irritating or unpleasant for them. To get rid of annoying buzzing, prepare a trap from which they will keep.
- Pour several tablespoons of coffee deposits into the container.
- Add the ground tablespoon of cinnamon.
- Mix everything together and gently press.
- Place the mixed mixture in a strategic place (on the balcony, garden or terrace) and ignite. When she gently melts, her smoke scares the mosquitoes around.
How to scare mosquitoes in a home way? These fragrances cannot stand
In order to leave us at rest, it is worth considering planting plants, whose smell effectively holds them to the distance. You can place them on the window sills and balconies to create a natural mosquito barrier while decorating the space around the house.
Select for example:
- cat mint
- nail
- nutmeg
- Aksamietnica
- basil
- Fenikel
- lavender
- lemon grass
Better than tuje and repels mosquitoes and pliers. Decorats the garden with white “balls”
