Midges and mosquitoes that suddenly appear in your apartment can become the most unpleasant neighbors.

Sometimes even mosquito nets installed in a timely manner cannot protect against insects.

Therefore, it is worth knowing about proven methods that will help drive insects out of your home.

What methods can be considered?

Tomatoes

If we are talking about a country house, then the problem of unpleasant insects can be solved with the help of tomato tops. The plant material emits a special smell that your "guests" will not like.

However, the tops need to be changed in a timely manner to maintain a lasting positive result.

Buy geranium

If you still don't have this popular plant, now is the time to get it. It is even advisable to have several plants in the house to increase the effectiveness of the method.

Geraniums are often placed on windowsills to discourage midges and mosquitoes from "visiting" your apartment.

Aromatherapy

Insects don't like many pleasant smells, so it's time to master aromatherapy. First of all, cloves have a high degree of effectiveness. Essential oil of wormwood shows good results.

If you cannot buy geranium itself, you can pay attention to the corresponding oil.
