Natural Insect Repellent As the warmer months approach, especially in rural or garden-equipped homes, the nuisance of insects increases. Instead of relying on chemical repellents, you can create a natural and effective alternative using only bay leaves and cloves to keep pests at bay for good.
Bay Leaves and Clove – Natural Insect Repellents Bay leaves and cloves are renowned for their insect-repellent properties. These natural remedies have been used for centuries to ward off mosquitoes, flies and other pests.
Bay leaves are native to the Mediterranean and are rich in essential oils that give off an unpleasant aroma to insects. Whether burned or crushed, these leaves release their essential oils into the air, forming a natural barrier against insects. Both fresh and dried bay leaves are useful: dried leaves last up to a year, and fresh leaves give off a stronger scent, particularly effective against cockroaches.
