How to repel mosquitoes with vinegar step by step

Ingredients :

  • 1 cup white vinegar
  • 10 drops of essential oil (choose between citronella, eucalyptus or lavender)
  • 1 spray bottle

Instructions :

  1. Pour 1 cup of white vinegar into the spray bottle.
  2. Add 10 drops of your chosen essential oil (citronella, eucalyptus, or lavender) to the spray bottle. 
  3. These oils have mosquito repellent properties and will enhance the effectiveness of the vinegar.
  4. Close the spray bottle tightly and shake it well to mix the vinegar and essential oil.
  5. Spray the mixture on exposed skin, clothing, and any areas where mosquitoes tend to congregate, such as doors, windows, and outdoor seating areas.
  6. Reapply the spray every 2-3 hours or as needed, especially if you sweat or come into contact with water.
  7. For added protection, you can also place small containers filled with the vinegar and essential oil mixture around your outdoor space. This will help create a mosquito repellent barrier.

Note : It is important to remember that vinegar and essential oils can cause skin irritation for some people, especially those with sensitive skin.
