Use one of these tricks to get rid of the bug problem in your home forever, thatās what itās all about.
SummerĀ is the favorite season for many, for theĀ beautifulĀ daysĀ , theĀ heatĀ and the time spentĀ outdoorsĀ .Ā And itās not unusual to leaveĀ windows openĀ to circulate as much air as possible inside the house, especially when itās notĀ too hotĀ .Ā When we do this, however, we also have to deal with aĀ really tedious problemĀ :Ā insects entering the house.Ā Luckily, there are severalĀ natural solutionsĀ to this headache.
SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF INSECTS IN THE HOUSE: FLIES
The variety ofĀ insectsĀ that could come to visit us even if they are not invited is enormous, includingĀ flies, bees, mosquitoes, cockroaches and antsĀ .Ā For each of them, however, there is theĀ perfect natural solutionĀ .
As regardsĀ fliesĀ , first of all, it is good to remember that these insects cannot tolerateĀ very strong odors.Ā We can therefore exploit thisĀ weaknessĀ with the right weapons:Ā lemon andĀ clovesĀ .Ā To prepare theĀ remedy against fliesĀ , it will be necessaryĀ to cut a lemon in twoĀ , then insertĀ clovesĀ into each of the halves.
At that point, we can place ourĀ lemon halfĀ in the points that are usually theĀ access routesĀ for flies into our house, for exampleĀ windows or doorsĀ .Ā The pungent aroma ofĀ lemonĀ , combined with the very strong aroma ofĀ clovesĀ , will keep flies awayĀ for a long time.
The sameĀ effectĀ can be achieved by preparing aĀ sprayĀ to spray on the same points.Ā To make it, we will have to combineĀ 10 drops of mint essential oilĀ andĀ 10 drops of eucalyptus essential oilĀ , and thenĀ dilute themĀ in half a liter of water.
AnotherĀ effective remedyĀ against flies is to make aĀ repellent mixtureĀ based onĀ water, sugar and black pepperĀ .Ā The mixture, once created, must be spread on aĀ strip of paperĀ that we can place in theĀ relevant pointsĀ .Ā AĀ spray alternativeĀ to this remedy is the mixture ofĀ white vinegar and mint essential oilĀ , to be sprayed near windows and doors.
Say Goodbye To Ants In Your Home
If the problem, however, is not flies, but ratherĀ ants ,Ā differentĀ but still adequateĀ solutions must be found .Ā First of all, letās keep in mind that actingĀ promptlyĀ in the event of an ant invasion isĀ essentialĀ to prevent the situationĀ from getting worse and worseĀ quickly.
To this end, theĀ first thing to doĀ is to identify the point from which the antsĀ enter the houseĀ , as well as determine theĀ causeĀ .Ā Generally, ants enter our home by passing throughĀ cracks or small holes in the wallsĀ .Ā If this is our case, therefore, the first thing to do isĀ to close these access routesĀ .
In case thisĀ is not possibleĀ , we can placeĀ handkerchiefs soaked in vinegarĀ in front of these cracks.Ā In factĀ , ants do not tolerateĀ veryĀ strong odorsĀ , a bit like the majority ofĀ insectsĀ .
To prevent theirĀ formationĀ , we can then exploit theĀ repellent propertiesĀ ofĀ mintĀ , which, positioned inĀ strategic areasĀ such asĀ balconies, windowsills and windowsĀ , can completely prevent antsĀ from entering the house.
As we have seen, therefore, theĀ discomfortĀ created by insects in the home can be easily avoided with theĀ right precautionsĀ , you just needĀ to know themĀ !
