Steps to Follow:
- Prepare the Egg Cartons: Start by cutting the egg carton into individual cups or sections. These will serve as the base for your repellent.
- Insert Cloves: Push several whole cloves into each section of the egg carton. The cloves don’t need to be too densely packed but spread out enough so that their scent will be released effectively.
- Place Strategically: Distribute the egg carton sections around your home, especially in areas where mosquitoes are a nuisance. Common spots include near windows, doorways, and outdoor seating areas. If you prefer a more contained look, place the egg carton sections in a small bowl or on a plate before setting them out.
Why It Works
Mosquitoes are notoriously finicky when it comes to strong scents, and the aroma of cloves is particularly off-putting to them. The egg carton acts as a convenient and biodegradable vessel for the cloves, making it easy to place them around your home. As air flows through, it helps to disperse the clove’s scent, creating a natural deterrent against mosquitoes.
