Home Remedy for Mosquitoes

RE: Home Remedy for Mosquitoes By bluealt (63) Contact Try using the herb Rosemary. You can get small potted plants of it at the nursery and set them around your swings. Our plant is in the ground, an evergreen, and huge. We break off small branches and rub it on our skin. Repels insects!

I used them last summer, put them in the 'pockets' on the side of my yard swing down by our pond, and I do think it helped! I don't remember being invaded with mosquitoes!

If you have gardens or flowerbeds around your house, plant some in them and you can even have them in pots inside too. It is very effective and smells lovely.

"Bats are the only major predator of nocturnal flying insects. Bats often eat more than 50% of their body weight in insects each night and nursing female bats eat enough insects to equal their body weight. This can result in a single bat eating over 4,500 insects in a single night! Because bats eat so many insects, they are a very important part of our ecosystem." Installing bird feeders and bird baths to sncourage birds that also eats insects is recommended. Make sure there are no stray cats out to kill the unsuspecting birds. It is heartbreaking to pick up dead birds at the bird bath.

Do not spray on wood work or wood floors. They said it really repells them, spray around on outside ground also.............bernie Posted on 03/12/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
