Apple cider vinegar is a versatile natural product with antibacterial and disinfectant qualities that aid in repelling a variety of insects. It has the advantage of avoiding harsh chemicals, making it safe for people and the environment, and it is affordable and easy to obtain. Cinnamon is a kitchen spice with a distinctive aroma that also contains essential oils repelling insects. Like vinegar, cinnamon is safe for home use and lacks harmful effects on health or the environment.
Here is how to combine apple cider vinegar and cinnamon to deter house insects:
- Prepare a spray bottle with a blend of apple cider vinegar and cinnamon.
- Mix one part apple cider vinegar with half a part water and 10 to 15 drops of cinnamon essential oil in a spray bottle.
- Shake well to blend the ingredients.
- Spray the solution on corners where insects tend to breed. This formula works against flies, mosquitoes, ants and many common pests.
Mosquitoes and other pests can be bothersome, especially in summer when they are most active. There are natural ways to deter these invaders without relying on unhealthy chemical products. Essential oils are a popular choice for natural repellent. Citronella, tea tree, geranium, lavender and eucalyptus are among the plants commonly used. These oils are often mixed with water or a carrier oil to create an aroma diffuser or spray that helps keep insects away from indoor spaces.
