Mosquitoes are insect flies that suck on blood of men. These creatures have been around for millions of years already. I know, right? Talk about adaptability issues. Although what’s more alarming is how this span of time has allowed these insects to carry various types of diseases. Ever since, people in the world has been in the fight against mosquito brought sicknesses such as Malaria, Japanese Encephalitis, West Nile Virus, Filaria, chikungunya, Dengue and a lot more. Mosquitoes produce in great number for each time a female mosquito lays its eggs, and it doesn’t take long for their full life cycle to take place. They can also easily reproduce in any place where stagnant water is present. May it be in an artificially created setting or in a natural environment, these pests really don’t have much preference as to where they choose to reproduce. While it can be alarming how mosquitoes can’t be something to get rid off easily, there are still ways to eliminate them.
Here we have listed the three best ways to get rid of mosquitoes.
Bug Sprays
You can use a lot of natural ingredients to create an anti-bug spray. All you have to do is chop one small onion and use one garlic clove. Combine it together with four cups of water, one tablespoon of a liquid dish washing soap and four teaspoons of cayenne pepper. Mix and then spray around places where people would usually reside in your houses. All you need to do is have this mixture stored in a container with a tight lid and then keep it in a cool place. In some instances you can also use apple cider vinegar, witch hazel and drops of any essential oil combinations. Measurements should be a cup of apple cider vinegar, a quarter cup of witch hazel and 20 drops of any essential oils you may choose to use such as; rosemary, tea tree, eucalyptus, citronella or lemon grass. This works better if you shake the spray bottle once in a while as you use the spray.
Egg Cartons
Yes, you heard that right. If your mosquito problem tends to get more extreme in the night, then this might just be the best solution you can do to get rid of mosquitoes near you. For this, you only need egg cartons or coffee trays (usually the ones you get when you buy more several coffees from shops). All you need to do is light these on fire and let the fire grow bigger and then dispose of it in a fire safe location; soil would do. Then after, you just have to let the burning smell of these cardboard keep the mosquitoes away.
