How to get ready this homemade repellent in 5 minutes flat?
No need to be a chemistry expert! Here’s what you need:
- 1 tablespoon of mint toothpaste
- 1 tablespoon of baking soda
- 1 tablespoon of white vinegar
- 120 ml of lukewarm water
- 5 to 10 drops of peppermint essential oil (optional but recommended)
- Small flat containers (jar lids, saucers, etc.)
In a small bowl, blend the toothpaste and baking soda until you get a smooth paste. Slowly drain in the vinegar: does it foam? That’s normal! Then add the warm water, stirring well. For an even more powerful boost, put a few drops of peppermint crucial oil.
Stream this combination into your small containers, then place them in strategic locations: behind trash cans, near sinks, windows or in dark corners .
And after an hour, what occurs?
It’s almost instantaneous: within the first hour, you’ll spot a difference. The minty scent gently penetrates the air, creating an unwelcoming environment for pests. Flies and mosquitoes naturally go away, while cockroaches—very sensitive to the vinegar-baking soda combination—leave the area.
A small sign, a big effect: here is a simple, economical and powerful solution for your home to recover serenity.
Bonus tips for long-lasting effectiveness
- Reuse every 2 to 3 days to maintain optimal effect.
- Adapt the use according to your needs: rub a thin layer behind household appliances or along baseboards applying a cotton swab.
- In summer: Put a container near entrances or open windows for an additional natural barrier.
- Safe for the family : this combination is non-toxic and does not release any aggressive products, perfect for a healthy interior.
