Are you tired of mosquitoes, flies and other insects invading your home? What if I told you that with a few simple ingredients you can make a natural, inexpensive and effective repellent that is much better than store-bought products? Discover this incredible tip based on   cloves  ,  eucalyptus essential oil   and  alcohol   to repel insects while leaving your interior smelling pleasant.

Why use cloves and eucalyptus?

Clove and eucalyptus are two natural ingredients with strong repellent and aromatic properties.

  • Clove   : Contains eugenol  ,  a substance that repels mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches and even ants.
  • Eucalyptus essential oil   : In addition to its fresh and pleasant scent, it is known to repel insects and purify the air.

With these ingredients, you can create a natural and cost-effective solution to protect your home.

Recipe: Natural Insect Repellent

Ingredients :

  • 12 tablespoons of water
  • 6 tablespoons of 70° alcohol (or 40° if that’s all you have)
  • 1 bag of cloves
  • 3 tablespoons of eucalyptus essential oil (or another essential oil of your choice)

Preparation steps:

  1. Mix water and alcohol   : In a container, mix water and alcohol. Mix well to obtain a homogeneous solution.
  2. Add cloves   : Add the clove bag to the solution. The eugenol contained in the nails increases the repellent effect.
  3. Add the essential oil   : Add eucalyptus essential oil to perfume the solution and increase its effectiveness against insects.
  4. Mix well   : Stir vigorously to ensure all ingredients are properly mixed.

How to use this repellent?

  1. Fill a diffuser   : Use an electric diffuser or a Pavio device (like those sold in stores) to vaporize the solution.
  2. Place it in strategic spaces   : Install the diffuser in the kitchen, living room, bedroom or any other room where insects are present.
  3. Enjoy the immediate effect   : in the first few minutes you will feel the pleasant scent spreading and the insects disappearing.

  • Economical   : Use simple, inexpensive ingredients to create a product that is more effective than commercial ones.
  • Natural   : No harsh chemicals, only environmentally friendly and health-safe ingredients.
  • Versatile   : Keeps mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches and ants away while scenting your home.

Additional tips

  • Adjust the quantities   : If you need less solution, simply divide the quantities by two or three.
  • Use other essential oils   : If you don’t have eucalyptus, you can use lemongrass, lavender or tea tree oil.
  • Store the solution   : Store the mixture in an airtight container for later use.
