Tired of mosquitoes turning your nights into a safari? These persistent pests can ruin your sleep, but you don't need chemical-laden insecticides to fight back.
Luckily, there's a simple, time-tested natural remedy: prick cloves into an orange. This grandma's trick repels mosquitoes effectively and safely.
Contents
1. Select a large orange.
2. Insert whole cloves evenly across the rind.
3. Place the orange on your bedside table.
That's it! Mosquitoes detest the potent scent of cloves combined with citrus, keeping bites at bay so you can sleep undisturbed.
For best results, use multiple oranges in the room and opt for organic, untreated ones with fragrant peels.
During outdoor dinners, add scented geranium to the table. No orange? A lemon works just as well.
