In summer, in addition to sunny burns, one of the main problems is mosquitoes.
This information was reported by Ukr.media, reports “URA-Inform”.
At night they can become a real nightmare if you do not have plates from insects. Biologists have shared several folk remedies that can fight mosquitoes no worse than branded repellents.
Alcohol
Mosquitoes cannot stand the smell of alcohol. It will take only 10 minutes to prepare a simple solution. Add eucalyptus oil to three-quarters of the container with alcohol and dilute with water. Shake the solution and leave it on the table half an hour before bed. Mosquitoes will not bother you until the morning.
Essential oil
Essential oils are also excellent mosquito repellents. What they don't like most is the smell of pine and citrus. Experts recommend making an aqueous solution with vegetable oil and spraying it on clothing, or leaving it in an open container overnight. The main thing is to dilute the mixture well so as not to cause a headache.
Vanilla
Although vanilla is a pleasant flavor for us, mosquitoes try to avoid this smell . Vanilla powder can be diluted in water, but the most effective way is to rub it into the skin. For convenience, you can add vanilla powder to your favorite cream.
Tar
Although the product is not for everyone, its effectiveness is undeniable. Birch tar causes mosquitoes to leave the room within ten minutes. It must be applied to the skin very carefully, as the tar can cause severe irritation. In addition to mosquitoes, ticks will also avoid you.
These folk remedies will help you protect yourself from mosquitoes and enjoy summer nights without bites and irritation.
