BASIL<\/strong><\/p>\n Want a double whammy when it comes to mosquito protection? Plant some basil! Not only will you have a quick and easy mosquito repellent, you will also have a delicious fresh herb on hand to add to all of your favourite recipes! There are many different varieties of basil around, so feel free to experiment and find the ones that you like best. Many expert gardeners recommend trying lemon basil or cinnamon basil to deter insects. Basil has essential oils that can be extracted and used as a spray to repel mosquitoes. It has also been an effective repellent when grown nearby.<\/p>\n LAVENDER<\/strong><\/p>\n Lavenders are widely used as a repellent against mosquitoes and other insects. The advantage of using lavender oil over other chemical repellents is that it is completely natural and also has a sleep-inducing effect. It also nourishes the skin with no side-effects unlike other synthetic repellents. Moreover, the aroma is also pleasant when compared to the strong-smelling mosquito repellent creams. Grow it indoors near a sunny window, or outside in your garden or flower bed to keep the bugs away. While you\u2019re at it, make a delicious herbal tea, or use lavender to fill your home with a wonderful calming aroma.<\/p>\n PEPPERMINT<\/strong><\/p>\n Most bugs despise the smell and taste of peppermint, so planting it around your home is a great way to keep them from dropping by uninvited! Plus, if you do happen to get bitten, peppermint leaves rubbed directly onto the skin make a great itch relief treatment! Added bonus for the wonderful minty smell that makes a delicious addition to food and beverages!\u00a0DIY homemade Natural, nontoxic insect, bug and mosquito spray<\/a><\/p>\n CITRONELLA<\/strong><\/p>\n Citronella should be planted in pots, you can move it outdoors to your porch so it can repel mosquitoes in the springtime.
