Ingredients:
- 1 American glass
- 8 heaped tablespoons of ground coffee
- 1 standard size candle
Cloves (as per your preference)
Preparation Method:
- Fill the glass with ground coffee, pressing it down to create a flat, even surface.
- Make a central hole in the coffee using a knife.
- Cut the candle at intervals, ensuring the wick remains intact.
- Remove the wick, trim it to the height of the glass, and place it in the hole in the coffee.
- If the wick is too long, trim it so about 2 cm is exposed.
- Arrange cloves around the wick to your liking.
- Light the wick and wait for the coffee to start burning.
The combination of burning coffee and the scent of cloves creates a powerful repellent effect against insects. Congratulations, you’ve just made the most effective homemade repellent imaginable!
