Cockroach Repellent Homemade

Introduction

No one wants to have cockroaches in their homes! Cockroaches are pests, and it may be difficult to get rid of them. But, you can help keep them out of your home for good by applying a cockroach repellent homemade solution to your home’s exterior.

I don’t think anyone wants to have cockroaches in their homes! Cockroaches are pests, and it may be difficult to get rid of them. But, you can help keep them out of your home for good by applying a cockroach repellent homemade solution to your home’s exterior.

Cockroaches are pests, and it may be difficult to get rid of them. But, you can help keep them out of your home for good by applying a cockroach repellent homemade solution to your home’s exterior.

Cockroaches are known for hiding in dark areas and around doorways and windowsills. By applying a cockroach repellent homemade solution around those areas, you can prevent the pests from entering your home.

This homemade repellent is made with all-natural ingredients that are safe on any surface, even on plants or around children and pets. It’s an excellent way to deter these pests without harming anyone else or causing damage to the environment!

Most DIY pest repellents are made with chemicals that can harm people, pets, and plants. This homemade one is made with only natural ingredients, so it’s a safe way to keep cockroaches out of your home and yard.

You’ll need:

  • An empty spray bottle (or a jar if you don’t have one)
  • 4 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil (canola or olive oil are best)
  • 10 drops each of peppermint essential oil and rosemary essential oil (you can replace the peppermint with lemongrass if you prefer)

The process is easy enough for just about anyone to do it themselves and you’ll need some liquid dish soap (with citronella), water, essential oil (minty scents like lavender work best), glass spray bottle about 16 ounces capacity, funnel for pouring liquids into bottles (optional).

The process is easy enough for just about anyone to do it themselves and you’ll need some liquid dish soap (with citronella), water, essential oil (minty scents like lavender work best), glass spray bottle about 16 ounces capacity, funnel for pouring liquids into bottles (optional).

The first thing you’ll want to do is mix up the solution in the spray bottle. You’ll need a total of 1/4 cup of dish soap and about 3/4 cup of water. Next add 10-20 drops of your essential oil. I chose lavender because it smells nice but also has an insect repellent effect. You can use any type or blend of oils though; minty scents like peppermint or spearmint are especially effective at keeping insects away.

Once this mixture is complete add 2 tablespoons of white vinegar and shake well before each use. The vinegar helps break down the surface tension on whatever surface you’re spraying so it will be more effective at getting rid of bugs rather than just sitting on top with no way down into their nests where they hide out during daylight hours!

If desired, now would be a good time to pour everything into your spray bottle using either a funnel or simply gliding some paper towels over top to help absorb any excess liquid inside that might make spilling after filling easier later on…

You can also add one tablespoon of ground cayenne pepper per quart (32 fluid ounce) if you want an extra kick in your spray!

You can also add one tablespoon of ground cayenne pepper per quart (32 fluid ounce) if you want an extra kick in your spray! Cayenne pepper has been proven to repel insects, so it makes sense that adding it to your spider spray would increase the effectiveness.

If you’re looking for even more ways to keep those pesky bugs away, try sprinkling some cayenne pepper around your home or apartment. The scent is strong enough that most bugs won’t be able to stand it and will leave the area altogether.

You can get this handy homemade repellent at your local hardware store or online. We recommend using triple-filtered water when making these recipes because they’re much stronger than tap water alone so it will make them last longer too!

  • You will need a funnel.
  • You will need a glass spray bottle.
  • You will need triple-filtered water.
  • You will also need a spray nozzle and its cap, as well as an opener for the cap if you don’t have one handy in your kitchen drawer!

Simply mix the ingredients together in a glass bottle with the nozzle tip attached. Then spray wherever you want to prevent roaches from entering your home – like around doorways and windowsills!

  • Measure out the ingredients listed below, and add them to a glass bottle with a funnel:
  • ¼ cup of cedar chips
  • ½ cup of borax powder
  • 1 tsp. each cinnamon and dried mint leaves (the kind found in any grocery store)

Conclusion

This homemade repellent is great if you want to keep cockroaches out of your home, but it doesn’t work on other kinds of pests. So what do you do if there’s an infestation and not just a few bugs in the house? You need professional pest control services that use strong chemicals to kill insects like roaches. A good way to find these companies is by searching online with phrases like “pest control near me” or “cockroach removal.” Make sure they’re licensed by your state and have been around for at least five years because they’ll know how to handle any situation that comes their way!
