Repel mosquitoes & flies | TheFruitAndFlowerBasket TV
Time and again, I have to find in my friends and acquaintances but also in restaurants that annoying insects interfere with food and also like to sit on left open food. Apart from hygiene, for example, flies can even lay their eggs in the food. Such foods must of course be disposed of. Therefore, best kept in the refrigerator. Gelsen like to come out of hiding, especially if you want to sleep. Of course this is not conducive to humming and buzzing. Not to mention the itchy bites they leave behind.
Especially in summer, many insects like to come to our living rooms, as it is usually cooler than outside.
Today, I'll introduce you to a variety of proven methods to keep the pests out.
Tips against mosquitoes & flies in the apartment:
- An easy way to keep gels, flies and other creepy-crawlies out is by one Insect screens, These are often available cheaply and can be adapted to the individual size of the window or the door. With a click system, this can be fixed in the window frame. The fabric is so fine that no insects are guaranteed to fit through the net. So you can just leave the window open without the vermin gets into the living rooms.
- A thinner curtain at an entrance door helps very well. It is important that it is long enough and touches the ground. It is also useful here to sew in the hem of the curtain / curtain a lead cord for weighting. In this way, it serves its purpose even in windy weather.
- In addition, an insect spray, which is sprayed around the door, acts as a deterrent to the insects. This process should be repeated every 2 weeks or as needed. I use traditional ones for this bug spray which can be bought in the supermarket.
- A nice variant is the aroma diffuser, Because the insects do not like the strong smell and the ingredients of the essential oils. These include, for example, the essential oils of peppermint, thyme, rosemary and cinnamon. But also other essential oils like eg. Lemongrass (Citronella) are very good here. To do this, add water to the water tank and add the desired amount of oil. I prefer here 100% essential oils, which were produced by steam distillation, because they are significantly more odor-intensive than, for example, cold-pressed oils. At the same time, the aroma diffuser provides a pleasant atmosphere and contributes to a higher humidity.
- Especially against flies help two plastic bags filled with water. The bag is tied with a string. These are always hung in pairs as a deterrent by means of hooks over the door or window. Obviously, this method has a visually deterrent effect on the flies. Because the water in the bag reflects or reflects the light. I guess it is like 2 huge pairs of eyes and thus resembles a predator. I have this tip of my favorite restaurant apart. There you have even in the open air, despite close to adjacent Kuhstall peace before these pests.
With one or the other tip in combination, they will be able to keep their living area free of annoying insects.
