<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBelow, we’ll explain how to prepare this ingenious solution using materials you probably already have at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How to prepare the flavoring repellent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
To perform this method, you’ll need the following materials:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- 1 large lemon<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 1 small lemon<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Carnation flowers<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Bamboo sticks<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 2 white candles<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Nails (species)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Procedure:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Preparing the large lemon<\/strong>: Start by taking the large lemon and cutting off a small part of its base so that it can stand stably. Then, cut this lemon into two halves lengthwise, leaving each half in place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Inserting the cloves<\/strong>: Using a knife or stick, insert cloves into the flesh of the large lemon. Make sure to distribute them evenly on both sides, creating a kind of aromatic “skewers”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Setting the candles<\/strong>: Take the two white candles and cut each one into small pieces, about two to three centimeters. Insert one of these pieces into the center of each half of the large lemon. This will serve as the basis for the next step.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Attaching the bamboo sticks<\/strong>: Take four bamboo sticks and stick them in each half of the lemon, around the candle. Not only will this give you extra support, but it will also form an attractive structure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Preparation of the small lemon<\/strong>: Now, cut the small lemon in half and place it on the halves of the large lemon, as if they were a hat. Not only will this look pretty, but it will also boost the release of the scents.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Carnation decoration<\/strong>: Add some carnation flowers around the base of the structure. These are not only decorative, but also provide a pleasant aroma and help to scare away insects.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Lighting and enjoyment<\/strong>: Finally, light the candles. As the lemon pulp and cloves are heated, essential oils will be released that will flavor the environment. This fresh, citrusy scent will act as a natural repellent against mosquitoes, causing them to move away quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
With this method, you will not only enjoy a scented home, but you will also get rid of mosquitoes naturally. Enjoy your space free of insects and full of fragrance!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
