• coffee grounds

Are you a coffee lover? Do not throw away the sediment, it also serves to repel mosquitoes. This method is very effective, especially if you have a patio. Place   the coffee grounds   on aluminum foil and place them in a flower pot. Once dry, light it with a match. The smoke will give off a very unpleasant smell for the insects: they can’t tolerate it and won’t come around.

• Aromatic herbs

Many herbs have the power to drive away these annoying little beasts. In question, their scent is so delicate to us, but so repellent to mosquitoes. Peppermint, lemongrass, verbena, thyme or basil are ideal for driving away these undesirables. In pots, on the windowsill or on the balcony, this trick is perfect for stopping insect infestation. Also rely on the intense essential oils that you can spray in specific places in the house.

• eucalyptus
