The heat of summer brings not only warm weather but also an influx of mosquitoes. Many households resort to using mosquito coils to repel these pests. However, it is common knowledge that the smoke produced from burning these coils can be irritating to the respiratory system, especially for infants, pregnant women, and the elderly.
So, what can we use instead of mosquito coils? Interestingly, mosquitoes are repelled by a particular type of “water.” By placing a bowl of this “water” in your room, you can enjoy a mosquito-free environment without the worry of being bitten.
Today, I will share a simple trick to create your own mosquito-repelling “water.” Let’s get started!
First, prepare a bowl, and instead of discarding the ash from burned mosquito coils, collect it and place it in the bowl. Add an appropriate amount of sugar, as both the ash and sugar will act as mosquito repellents. The active ingredient in mosquito coils is allethrin, and the ash will also contain residual pyrethroid, which is effective in killing mosquitoes.
Next, pour a small amount of cooking oil into the bowl and add water. Stir the mixture well. Both the sugar and the oil will attract mosquitoes, making this a potent mosquito-repelling solution.
Finally, place the bowl of your homemade mosquito-repelling “water” in areas with a high presence of mosquitoes or near your bed, especially if your room has a humid environment. The sugar will attract the mosquitoes, the oil will stick to their bodies, and the ash will effectively kill them.
In conclusion, by following these simple steps, you can create your own safe, non-toxic, and effective mosquito-repelling “water.” Give it a try, and say goodbye to those pesky mosquitoes!
