Why Cinnamon?
Cinnamon is cherished around the world not only for its depth of flavor but also for its antifungal and antibacterial properties. It’s a natural air freshener that can improve indoor air quality and add a sense of warmth and comfort to any room.
How to Use Cinnamon in Your Home:
- Select Your Cinnamon: For this purpose, cinnamon sticks are ideal because they release scent slowly over time. However, ground cinnamon can also be used for a more immediate and intense effect.
- Prepare the Area: Clean the space behind your door to remove any dust or debris. A clean surface ensures that the cinnamon can act more effectively, whether you’re using it in stick or powder form.
- Apply the Cinnamon: If you’re using cinnamon sticks, place a few behind each door in your home. For ground cinnamon, sprinkle a small, thin line directly on the floor or on a piece of paper or fabric if you prefer not to have it directly on the floor.
- Enjoy the Aroma: As the cinnamon sits behind your door, its natural fragrance will gently waft into the room, filling it with a comforting and soothing aroma. This can be especially welcoming in high-traffic areas like the entryway or living room.
- Natural Repellent: Cinnamon’s strong scent is a natural deterrent for insects and pests. It can help keep ants, moths, and other unwanted critters at bay, making it a natural pest control solution.
- Refresh as Needed: Over time, the scent of cinnamon will fade. Refresh your cinnamon sticks or sprinkle new ground cinnamon every few weeks to maintain the aromatic benefits.
