Best Tips on How to Repel Pests Naturally
Snake:
Spray any scented room freshener. They will leave.
Centipede:
Sprinkle salt. They will not come back. Even Epsom salt helps. [My experience]
Termites:
Spray lemon peel water with vinegar. The smell drives them away. It is good to wipe your doors and windows with this solution.
Rats:
Sprinkle black pepper with mint leaves. They are allergic to the smell of mint leaves.
Flies:
Place sliced pandan leaves. Mix neem oil and camphor.
Cockroaches:
- Add bay leaves. They hate the smell.
- Take bleaching powder, add Dettol, vinegar, and cleaning liquid. Mix the solution—Spray near the sinks and washroom drains.
Mosquitoes:
- Keep the orange peel. The smell of the oranges drives them.
- Take neem oil, oregano oil, citronella oil, and add camphor. Prepare the solution, and keep it near your bedside. You get a good night’s sleep.
Ants:
Sprinkle turmeric or coffee powder. The smell makes them run.
Lizard
- Pour ice water when you spot it. It will run away.
- Lizards have sensitive scent receptors that sharp, pungent smells can easily overwhelm. Combining household vinegar with paint thinner creates a strong localized repellent spray.
- Add citronella oil and neem oil to an open container. The scent of citronella deters insects.
