Are you tired of mosquitoes, flies and other insects invading your home?

Discover this incredible trick based on  cloves , eucalyptus essential oil  and alcohol  to keep insects away while pleasantly perfuming your home.

Why Use Clove and Eucalyptus?

Clove and eucalyptus are two natural ingredients with powerful 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 economical 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

Preparation Steps:

  1. Mix water and alcohol  : In a container, combine water and alcohol. Mix well to obtain a homogeneous solution.
  2. Add the cloves  : Pour the bag of cloves into the solution. The eugenol in the cloves will infuse and enhance the repellent effect.
  3. Incorporate the essential oil  : Add eucalyptus essential oil to scent the solution and increase its effectiveness against insects.
  4. Mix well  : Stir vigorously so that all the ingredients are properly incorporated.

How to Use This Repellent?

  1. Fill a diffuser  : Use an electric diffuser or pavio device (such as those sold commercially) to evaporate the solution.
  2. Place it in strategic rooms  : Install the diffuser in the kitchen, living room, bedroom or any other room where insects are present.
  3. Enjoy the immediate effect  : Within the first few minutes, you will feel the pleasant scent diffuse and the insects will start to disappear.
