With the prevalent issue of dengue mosquitoes in Singapore, keeping your house mosquito-free should be top priority. We went online to search for various remedies and discovered one really effective solution for our homeowners!
Did you know?
At higher temperatures (30 degrees Celsius & above), the female mosquito can mature and develop in only seven days!
Here are some tips plus our team’s preferred solution to keep our home mosquitoes free once and for all
#1 Get rid of stagnant water
A pool of undisturbed water is like magnet to mosquitoes. Other than getting rid of it, another trick is to sprinkle coffee grounds where stagnant water is. Mosquito eggs will be forced to come to the surface and die before they are hatched.
#2 Get an aromatherapy burner
Certain essential oils have repellent properties, like eucalyptus, mint, lavender, tea tree oil and citronella (lemongrass). It will also make the house smell better!
#3 Grow insect-repelling plants around your house
Plants like citronella, rosemary, basil, marigold and mint are great insect-repelling plants – and can also double up as cooking ingredients.
#4 Get an insect screen for doors and windows
If you are looking for a non-chemical approach, there is a much better alternative available to keep your home safe from not only mosquitoes but also house flies and other little flying insects.
