Recipe Efficacy

These recipes are effective due to the repellent properties of their ingredients. The combination of sugar and yeast in the first recipe attracts mosquitoes, which then become trapped in the bottle. In the second recipe, bay leaf and cloves emit a strong smell that scares away cockroaches and flies. Lastly, the shampoo, vinegar, and oil mixture in the third recipe creates an unpleasant environment for these insects, keeping them away from your home.

Tips

• Replace traps regularly : Be sure to check and replace traps and solutions regularly to maintain their effectiveness.
• Regular cleaning : Keep your home clean and free of food debris to reduce the attraction of insects.
• Try different locations : If a recipe doesn’t work in one location, try locating the trap or applying the spray in other areas frequented by insects.
