Trap placement: Place the container where insects are most likely to appear—in the kitchen, next to the trash can, or other critical points.
Run time: Leave the trap for one hour. During this time, insects will enter, attracted by the smell, and will not be able to get out.
Serving and storage tips:
If you have a bigger insect problem, prepare a few of these traps and place them in different areas of the house.
Change the solution every 2-3 days to maintain its effectiveness.
Store the ingredients (sugar, vinegar, essential oil) in a dry place so they are ready for the next use.
Variations:
Additional ingredient: If the problem is more serious, add a little dish soap to the mixture. This will allow the insects to sink into the solution more quickly.
Outdoor trap: You can prepare a larger container and place it on your patio or balcony to protect your home from outdoor insects.
Natural Repellents: If you don’t want to use traps, plant insect-repellent plants such as mint, lavender, or basil near windows and doors.
