How Do You Make Organic Insect Repellant?

0

Dealing with mosquitoes and other insects can be quite annoying when trying to enjoy outside activities. If you are concerned about using commercial insect repellants, you might like to try this organic recipe for garlic-pepper tea insect repellant. Combine two bulbs of garlic and two cayenne or habanera peppers with 1 cup of water in a blender. Blend into a liquid consistency. Strain the mixture to remove any solid particles. Pour the strained garlic-pepper juice into a one gallon container. A rinsed out gallon milk jug makes a good container. Fill the remaining volume of the container with water to make the concentrated solution. Put the lid on the container and shake well. Pour 1/4 cup of the garlic-pepper concentrate in a 1 gallon spray bottle. Fill the remaining volume of the spray bottle with water and screw on the spray nozzle. You can use this mixture as an organic insect repellant. Spray the organic insect repellant on outdoor areas and plants.
