๐ฆ Organic Mosquito Remedies That Actually Work ๐
Wisconsin summers are perfect.
Except for the mosquitos. ๐
Those little vampires show up uninvited every single year and honestly we are tired of it.
Before you reach for the chemicals here are some natural ways to fight back:
๐ฟ Plant lavender, citronella, lemon balm, basil and marigolds in your yard. Pretty AND functional. ๐ธ
๐ฏ๏ธ Burn citronella candles around your patio. They actually work and they smell amazing.
โ Sprinkle coffee grounds around standing water to stop larvae from hatching. Who knew your morning routine was also pest control. ๐
๐ง Garlic spray on your lawn and plants keeps mosquitos away. Also keeps vampires away. Two birds. ๐
๐ง Eliminate standing water anywhere in your yard. Birdbaths, clogged gutters, flower pot trays. Mosquitos need less than an inch of water to breed.
๐ Cut a lemon in half, stick cloves in it and set around your patio. Old school but it works.
Which one are you trying this summer? ๐๐
And speaking of clogged gutters, if yours need some attention we can help with that too! ๐ก
