Homemade Insect Repellent for Your Kitchen

Are you tired of dealing with flies, mosquitoes, and other pesky insects invading your kitchen? Say goodbye to those uninvited guests with a simple homemade insect repellent that requires just three common ingredients. The best part? No harsh chemicals needed!

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup vinegar (white or apple cider vinegar) โ€“ Attracts flies and insects.
  • 1/2 cup olive oil (or any vegetable oil) โ€“ Creates a barrier that traps insects.
  • 1/2 cup shampoo โ€“ Breaks the surface tension, making the mixture more effective.

How to Make It:

  1. Pour the vinegar, oil, and shampoo into a bowl or jar.
  2. Stir gently to mix the ingredients (donโ€™t shake).
  3. Place the bowl in your kitchen, near fruit bowls, windows, or wherever insects gather.
  4. Watch as flies, mosquitoes, and bugs get trapped and disappear!

Why This Works:

  • Vinegar attracts insects โ€“ They are drawn to the smell.
  • Oil traps them โ€“ Once they land, they canโ€™t escape.
  • Shampoo breaks the surface tension โ€“ Insects sink and get trapped in the liquid.

Extra Tips:

  • Replace the mixture every few days for the best results.
  • Use multiple bowls if insects are a big problem.
  • Add a few drops of essential oil (like lemon or peppermint) for an extra fresh scent.
