No stagnant water? ✅
Generally clean surroundings? ✅
But maaany ants and mosquitoes? ✅
Here’s a recipe for an all-natural anti-mosquito, anti-ant spray (thank you, ChatGPT)!
Ingredients:
• 100 ml water
• 100 ml white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
• 3 bay leaves, crushed or torn into smaller pieces
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed (optional)
• A few drops of vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Mixture: In a bowl or container, mix 100 ml of water with 100 ml of vinegar. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon each of ground cloves and ground cinnamon. Add the crushed bay leaves and crushed garlic if using. Add vanilla extract if desired.
2. Mix Well: Stir thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
3. Boil for Steam (Optional): If you want to use steam, pour the mixture into a small pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer. This step is optional if you only want to use it as a spray.
4. Transfer to Spray Bottle: If you simmered the mixture, let it cool before transferring it to the 100 ml spray bottle. If you didn’t simmer, just pour the mixture directly into the spray bottle.
Usage:
• For Air: Shake well before each use. Spray into the air around the areas you want to protect from mosquitoes.
• For Surfaces: You can also lightly spray around entry points and surfaces.
This recipe will fit perfectly in two (2) 100 ml spray bottles. Let me know if it works for you! ☺️
