An ancient hack that keeps the home free of cockroaches and flies

– ½ glass of vinegar.
– ½ olive oil glass.
½ cup of shampoo.
How would one apply:

Pour all three components into a spray bottle; shake this concoction. All you need to do is mist the liquid in many home corners.
3 – A lavender essential oil based repellant

On a sponge, sprinkle some lavender essential oil; then, let it rest in an area receiving regular use. Start the process as soon as the scent vanishes.
4- A natural repellent including cloves and lemon

Cutting a lemon ( ideally green) in half and then spacing around fifteen cloves on each side is the grandmother’s technique.
The two scents used together provide a natural insect repellant against flies and mosquitoes. The lemon pulp will darken and become brown after a few days. Every week this surgery has to be redone.
Additional advice for bug hunting
