Garlic is much more than a cooking ingredient: its strong smell and antibacterial properties make it an excellent natural repellent against rats and insects.
Here are several ways to use garlic to keep these pests away, with simple tricks you can apply at home.
1. Fresh garlic cloves as a natural barrier
What you need:
– Fresh garlic cloves
– Cloth bags or small containers
Procedure:
Crush several cloves of garlic so that they release their aroma as much as possible.
Place them in small cloth bags or open containers.
Distribute these bags near cracks in the walls, dark corners, holes, and other areas where you have noticed the presence of rats.
Trick: Renew the contents every 3 to 5 days to maintain their effectiveness. You can also add a few drops of peppermint oil to the bag to enhance the repellent effect.
2. Garlic Spray for Corners and Corners
