This versatile spray is a fantastic all-purpose solution for deterring various insects, including cockroaches, flies, and mosquitoes. It works by combining ingredients that are both powerful repellents and effective cleaners. The shampoo helps to break down insect exoskeletons on contact, while the vinegar and oil provide a lasting barrier.
Ingredients:
- ½ cup of shampoo
- ½ cup of white vinegar
- ½ cup of vegetable oil
- A clean spray bottle
Instructions:
- In a small bowl or container, thoroughly mix the shampoo, white vinegar, and vegetable oil. Whisk the ingredients together until they are fully combined.
- Carefully transfer the mixture into a spray bottle.
- Because the oil and vinegar will separate over time, be sure to shake the bottle well before each use.
- Apply this spray in corners, along baseboards, behind appliances, and in any other areas where you’ve noticed insects. The oil helps the mixture stick to surfaces for a longer-lasting effect. Before using it on painted walls or fine furniture, it's a good idea to test a small, inconspicuous area first.
