With summer comes the mosquitoes!
Something to spoil summer evenings, especially if you have mosquito-prone skin...
Unless you know a trick to repelling mosquitoes.
A very useful natural trick to repel mosquitoes when they arrive en masse with summer is to use rose geraniums.
This type of geranium has the particularity of having a strong odor which effectively repels mosquitoes. Watch:
1. Get rose geraniums.
2. Place them on the windowsills or on the terrace.
3 . For greater efficiency, take a few leaves.
4 . Crumple them in your hand.
5. Rub them against the skin.
There you go, not a single mosquito will bother you :-)
The leaves of these geraniums are covered with small glands that release intense aromas.
This natural mosquito repellent is even more effective when crumpled to release its odors.
If mosquitoes are still lurking around the house, nothing prevents you from investing in an electric mosquito repellent racket.
Geranium Pelargonium is also a plant that helps get rid of mosquitoes without spending too much. You can also try rose geranium essential oil.
With this trick no need to buy mosquito repellents to repel mosquitoes outside your house or apartment.
Considering the price of this type of product, it's a great savings in perspective, especially for the smart little ones who spend their time getting bitten...
