🦟 Fragrances against mosquitoes, flies and other insects.

1️⃣ One hundred grams of camphor or valerian vaporized over a burner will rid even very large rooms of flies and mosquitoes.

2️⃣ Use essential oils of clove, basil, anise, eucalyptus. Smear on exposed skin (5-10 drops per glass of water), or on a fire source - in a fireplace, campfire, on a candle or a heated frying pan. Moisten a absorbent cotton pad with the oil of these plants and place it on the windowsill.

3️⃣ Put fresh elderberry branches in your room; they repel mosquitoes just as well as the smell of tomato leaves.

4️⃣ When you run out of liquid for your electric fumigator, don't rush to the store to get a replacement unit. Pour 100% eucalyptus extract into an empty vial. Mosquitoes will forget the way into your house.

5️⃣ Finely chop fresh cherry or mountain ash leaves and rub on exposed skin.

6️⃣ The smell of cedar oil repels not only mosquitoes, but also flies and cockroaches.
