Back again with a few more tips

Hi All,

Yes me again with a few more useful tips of how to get rid of nasty little bugs that invade our home.

 

Tip 1 Mosquitos

Make sure you don't have any standing water about where they can breed. Stick some cloves in a lemon and leave it near to windows and door this will deter them entering your home.  Also place a small container of clove oil in the rooms in your home, but remember to check regularly just in case a top up is needed.

Tip 2 Ants

Problem with ants invading your home.  Buy some cinnamon powder and sprinkle it around the places where you have seen them entering.  Ants will not cross a line of cinnamon.  So buy some next time your shopping.

Tip 3 Cockroaches

Yucky- Place a jam lid containg a mixture of sugar and borax (3:1 ratio) under sinks and behind appliances. DO LET KIDS OR PETS GET NEAR, SO KEEP THEM WELL TUCKED AWAY. You can also sprinkle the mixture into cracks and crevices.

Hope my tips are helpful to some of you.

Bye 4 now.

SuzyQ
