Baking soda: your magic powder
Why it works:
Baking soda acts like a moisture sponge. Without moisture, neither dust mites nor bed bugs can survive for long. It also neutralizes unpleasant odors and prevents bacteria from growing.
How to do it:
- Sprinkle generously on the mattress, pillows and even curtains.
- Leave for 2 to 3 hours for the powder to take effect.
- Vacuum thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner equipped with a HEPA filter .
- Repeat every two weeks for optimal effectiveness.
Essential oils: to perfume… and repel!
Some oils are real natural shields against pests. Special mention goes to tea tree, lavender, eucalyptus, and peppermint oils.
Instructions for use:
- Mix 15 drops of essential oil in 25 cl of water .
- Lightly spray the mattress (without soaking it).
- Allow to air dry completely before replacing your sheets.
Bonus : your room will smell pleasantly good , like a natural spa.
