Mosquitoes are the least welcome guests of summer, even though it is their favorite time of year to look at us and visit us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes they become a real pain because they don’t exactly make our evening on the outdoor balcony, but don’t worry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In fact, there are natural tricks that manage to get rid of them in a short time. Today we are going to look at the coffee method!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You may be wondering why you should use coffee, but I’m about to explain!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In reality, this drink, which for us is like the nectar of the gods and has an intoxicating scent, is prepared in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All you need is :<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dry coffee grounds
A small container
of aluminum foil
All you need to do is line the container with aluminum foil, then add the coffee grounds on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At this point you have to burn it to spread all the aroma around the area, so that the mosquitoes hear it from afar and don’t even think about coming into the house!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once the aroma reaches the right intensity, turn it off and that’s it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Did you know? You can also sprinkle the coffee grounds on the plants to keep the insects away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now let’s see what alternative methods you can use!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A winning combination that makes mosquitoes disappear in no time is that of lemon and vinegar!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The two aromas released by the ingredients torment the insects in question, leaving them no choice but to change direction!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Simply fill half a glass with vinegar (I recommend white wine vinegar) and dip one or more lemon slices into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Leave the jar in strategic places where you can see where the mosquitoes are coming from and that’s it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you like having outdoor plants on your balcony, you probably also have some that kill mosquitoes, would you like to know if that is the case too?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let’s take a look together at which mosquito repellent plants are suitable for you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
lemongrass;
Basil;
catnip;
Monarda;
Catamba;
geranium;
Mint;
Lavender.
These fantastic plants will not only smell and make the balcony more beautiful and colorful, but also create a barrier against mosquitoes, so you can enjoy your summer evenings outdoors without any problems!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No, we’re not talking about a culinary recipe here, but rather a super tip for getting rid of unwanted mosquitoes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also in this case we see a perfect pair that releases an aroma that is unbearable for these insects, besides we are talking about ingredients that are always at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Halve an onion and stick in a few cloves. You can do the same with the other half of the onion to place it in different places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you move everything onto the balcony, the mosquitoes will turn around!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have trouble driving the nails into the bulb, make small holes and then insert them – it’s easier!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, let’s take a look at how to make a DIY repellent to say goodbye to mosquitoes in the summer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We need the leaves of two plants that are very effective against insects: mint and basil, which we already mentioned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Steep two bunches of these plants in a liter of hot water. When the water has cooled, filter the mixture and pour it into a spray bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At this time, you can store it in the refrigerator and spray it around the area or on the body to avoid mosquito bites!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do not use the ingredients listed in the remedies if you have an allergy or sensitivity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
