It’s no secret that pesky insects like flies and mosquitoes can be a major nuisance. They infiltrate our homes, causing more than simply annoyance; they can also bring health risks with them. Sure, there are plenty of insect repellents on the market, but many of them contain chemicals that aren’t always good for humans or the environment.
Fortunately, there are natural solutions to keep these bugs at bay that are both healthy for you and gentler on the environment.
