If you’re tired of flies in the kitchen, mosquitoes at night, or pests showing up where they don’t belong, there’s an easy solution you can make at home. This natural method uses safe, everyday ingredients and helps reduce the number of bugs around your living space—without the need for harsh chemicals or expensive sprays.Here’s what you’ll need: 5 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon of yeast, 1 cup of warm water, 15 bay leaves, 10 cloves, ½ cup of regular shampoo, and an empty 2-liter plastic bottle. When mixed together, the sugar and yeast create a natural scent that attracts insects into the bottle. At the same time, the bay leaves, cloves, and shampoo help keep the surrounding area less appealing to other bugs.
