Natural Insect Repellants
Mosquito Remedy Check this out---it works just super! May seem trivial, but it may help control mosquitoes around your home, especially in the South and elsewhere where the West Nile virus is reaching epidemic proportions in mosquitoes, birds, and humans
Use Bounce Fabric Softener Sheets...Best thing
ever used in
Louisiana..just wipe on &
go...Great for Babies For Pets externally herb essence oils (aromatherapy oils) of juniper, bergamont, eucalyptus, citronilla, geranium, cedar and lavender. A few drops diluted and put in a spray bottle with pure water and shake well before each use. This is going to floor you, but one of the best insect repellents someone found (who is in the woods every day), is Vick's Vaporub. Plant marigolds around the yard, the flowers give off a smell that bugs do not like, so plant some in that garden also to help ward off bugs without using insecticides. Marines who spend a great deal of time "camping out" say that the very best mosquito repellent you can use is Avon Skin-So-Soft bath oil mixed about half and half with alcohol. One of the best natural insect repellents that I've discovered is made from the clear real vanilla. This is the pure Vanilla that is sold in Mexico. It works great for mosquitoes and ticks, don't know about other insects.
Garlic is the best I think. It, also, repells fleas.
I think I have heard they like certain blood types
better.... like the positive rh aspect maybe.,,,???
If you eat bananas, the mosquitos like you, - something about the banana oil as your body processes it. When all else fails--get a frog or a bat ! |
