Say goodbye to flies, mosquitoes and cockroaches boiling

Tired of Annoying Insects at Home?

We’ve all faced the irritation of buzzing flies, biting mosquitoes, and the occasional cockroach. Not only are they a nuisance, but they can also carry diseases. Thankfully, there are simple, natural ways to keep them away using common kitchen items.

DIY Mosquito Trap

To trap mosquitoes, mix 5 tablespoons of sugar in 1 cup of hot water, then add 1 tablespoon of yeast. Cut the top off a 2-liter plastic bottle, pour the mix inside, and invert the top like a funnel. Place it where mosquitoes tend to gather. This method attracts and traps them.

Natural Cockroach & Fly Repellent

Boil 15 bay leaves and 10 cloves in 1 cup of water for 10 minutes. Once cooled, pour the liquid into a spray bottle and use it in kitchens, bathrooms, or anywhere bugs appear.

All-Purpose Repellent Spray

Mix 1/2 cup each of shampoo, vegetable oil, and white vinegar. Shake well and pour into a spray bottle. Spray around your home to keep insects at bay.

These natural remedies are “a safer, more natural alternative to commercial chemical repellents.”

Final Tips

While effective, these solutions work best when paired with basic prevention—“keeping areas clean and avoiding water stagnation” is still essential.
