How to Use Garlic to Get Rid of Pests

  1. Garlic Spray for Insects:
    • Ingredients:
      • 5-6 garlic cloves
      • 1 liter of water
      • 1 teaspoon of dish soap
    • Method: Crush the garlic cloves and add them to the water. Let it sit overnight, then strain the mixture into a spray bottle. Add dish soap to help the solution stick to surfaces. Spray directly onto areas where pests are a problem (such as door frames, windowsills, or plants). Repeat every few days for effective results.
  2. Garlic and Pepper Spray for Flies and Mosquitoes:
    • Ingredients:
      • 5-6 garlic cloves
      • 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
      • 1 liter of water
      • A few drops of dish soap
    • Method: Crush the garlic and mix it with cayenne pepper and water. Let the mixture sit for 24 hours, then strain it and add a little dish soap. This solution works great for repelling flies and mosquitoes. Spray it around windows, doors, and other entry points.
  3. Garlic Powder to Keep Rodents and Cockroaches Away:
    • Ingredients:
      • Garlic powder
    • Method: Sprinkle garlic powder around the perimeter of your home, especially in areas where rats and cockroaches are likely to enter (such as along walls, under sinks, or near trash). The strong scent will help deter them from coming closer.
  4. Garlic Sachets for Lice and Bugs:
    • Ingredients:
      • 2-3 garlic cloves
      • A small cloth pouch or bag
    • Method: Crush the garlic cloves and place them in a cloth pouch. Hang these sachets around the house, in cupboards, or in areas where you’ve spotted lice or bugs. The garlic smell will keep pests away from your belongings.
  5. Garlic to Repel Lizards:
    • Ingredients:
      • Garlic cloves
    • Method: Crush or cut garlic cloves and place them around entry points or areas where lizards are active. Lizards are sensitive to the strong scent of garlic and will stay away.
