Here’s how to create a homemade insecticide: create it directly in your home and you’ll see the difference. Goodbye mosquitoes, spiders and ants.
Spring has officially arrived and the beautiful days are beginning to take over. With the sun shining and nature being reborn we inevitably feel better, a bit like we too are being reborn. Everything comes back to life and color, flora and fauna awaken. Each coin, however, has two sides on opposite sides. As beautiful as they are, spring and summer are two seasons that, in addition to joy, bring some annoyance. Between the excessive heat, the scorching sun and the sweat, we witness the invasion of dozens of different species of insects in our homes. Flies flutter everywhere, mosquitoes torment us with their bites, ants sneak into our kitchen. This does not mean that we have the right or the duty to kill these animals: the most correct thing to do is to prevent their appearance. Let’s see together how to create a fantastic product to keep all insects away.
The zero-cost insecticide, maximum performance
Every year when the good weather arrives we start to deal with insects, spiders, mosquitoes and wasps that invade our home. What we usually do is quickly go to the supermarket to buy some insecticides. However, most of these commercial products are extremely chemical and potentially toxic. Releasing large amounts of these aerosols into the air we breathe can be harmful to our health. It is not only our health that is affected: the damage is also to the environment. Not to mention how insects die from this toxic torture. In addition, commercial insecticides have prices that are not especially convenient. What we recommend today is to create this product directly at home aimed at preventing insects from approaching our home. You won’t need to buy hard-to-find products: everything you need is almost certainly already in your home. What is needed will leave you amazed, let’s see together what is needed and how to create our anti-insect product.
The “recipes” to save us from insects
Keeping insects away doesn’t just mean keeping them from bothering us, it also means saving our plants or pets from poisonous insects. You will be surprised to know that with some unexpected ingredients we can scare away all unwanted insects. One of the many remedies consists of a natural garlic-based mixture. Yes, garlic is a great insect repellent. To make the most of the power of garlic you will only need a clove and half a liter of water, nothing more. The actual preparation is very simple and fast.
The first step is to chop the garlic clove with the help of a blender. Then, using a funnel, pour half a liter of water into a spray bottle and add the previously chopped garlic inside. Let it rest for a few hours and then we can start using it. The most effective way is to spray it on our plants: they are the ones that attract most of the insects that we find in the house. It can also be useful to spray it on our balcony at strategic points. You’ll see what a difference. Let’s now look at an alternative and equally effective recipe, this time with the help of onions.

Goodbye insects: with the onion they won’t even come close
To create an insect repellent product based on onions, we will only need a liter of water and 10 grams of onion. This time too the preparation is very simple. The first step is to boil 1 liter of water and pour it over the onion so that a kind of infusion is created. The final product will be excellent against some plant diseases, especially fungal ones, such as mildew. It is also an excellent infusion against aphids and mites. This onion-based product can also be combined with a garlic-based product to enhance its potency and effectiveness. These are two very natural remedies that differ greatly from chemical and toxic products. They are free of risks to us and the environment. And more at zero price! Seeing is believing.
