Home Remedies For Mosquitoes Repellent
Lemon Eucalyptus Oil
Lemon eucalyptus oil is one of the most popular home remedies for mosquitoes, and has been used to repel insects for centuries. The essential oil extracted from the leaves of the lemon eucalyptus tree is a natural insect repellent. It’s also anti-microbial, making it an effective treatment for warding off harmful bacteria that may be present in the air during hot summer months.
To use lemon eucalyptus oil as a mosquito deterrent:
- Place 2–3 drops of pure essential oil into a diffuser and turn on medium heat setting (or higher).
- Or place 1 drop on a cotton ball or tissue, then place near where you’ll spend most time indoors (for example: near your favorite reading chair or by an open window) so that it can disperse throughout your home.
You may also use this method outdoors if desired — just keep in mind that certain insects are attracted to sweet smells!
Citronella Oil
Citronella oil is a natural mosquito repellent and works by releasing a scent that mosquitoes don’t like.
It’s made from the leaves and stems of the lemongrass plant, which is native to India and Indonesia.
You can buy citronella oil in a concentrated form or as an essential oil. The most effective way to use it as a mosquito repellent is to burn it as a candle in your yard or on your deck when you’re outside grilling or hanging out with friends on the patio. You can also apply citronella directly onto your skin or clothes before venturing out into the wilderness so be sure to check labels for recommended amounts because some people may find them irritating if they’re used too heavily! As always, make sure you test these home remedies out before trying them on children since they may have different reactions than adults do (especially if they have sensitive skin).
Lemongrass
Lemongrass is a perennial plant that grows to about two feet tall.
- You can use lemongrass as a mosquito repellent by crushing fresh leaves or placing dried ones in your drawers or cupboard.
- It will repel mosquitoes for up to 6 months!
- Lemongrass oil has many health benefits such as improving digestion, liver function and lowering blood pressure.
Neem Oil
You can use neem oil, which comes from a type of tree common in India, as a mosquito repellent. The smell gives mosquitoes a headache and keeps them away. Neem is safe for people and pets alike.
Get some neem oil spray or lotion to keep on hand at home, or make your own by boiling one cup of water with five teaspoons of chopped fresh leaves from the neem tree until it’s reduced to half its size (about an hour). Put this mixture into an airtight container and store it in the fridge so it doesn’t spoil before use!
Lavender Oil
Lavender oil is a wonderful herb to treat many health problems. It has been used to treat insect bites, allergies and skin infections. In addition, it can also be used as a natural way to repel mosquitoes.
Lavender essential oil contains several components that have insect repellent properties like linalool and linalyl acetate. These two compounds make lavender oil effective in repelling mosquitoes by causing irritation when they come in contact with the skin or mucous membranes like eyes or nose.[1]
Lavender oil can be used to reduce the risk of mosquito bites because it has been found that these compounds have repellent properties against certain species of flying insects such as fleas.[2] This means that if you have an outdoor area where there are lots of mosquitoes flying around then adding some lavender plants will help keep them away from your house without having any harmful effects on people who live there
Basil
Basil is rich in many essential oils that can help keep mosquitoes away. It also contains camphor, which is known to be a great mosquito repellent. When applied topically, basil oil can help keep mosquitoes away.
Vinegar and Tea Tree Oil Spray
- Add white vinegar to a spray bottle with a few drops of tea tree oil.
- Mix well and fill it with water, then shake to combine the ingredients.
- Spray in areas where you have seen mosquitoes or expect them to be an issue (like near your front door). Use daily for best effects, replacing solution after one week if desired.
