Adiós Mosquitoes
Tuck a dryer sheet into your pocket, and not only will you have the ever-so-fresh smell all day, it will also keep the mosquitoes away.

Au revoir Ants
Create small piles of cornmeal around the house wherever you see ants. They eat the cornmeal, take it “home”, share with the colony but can’t digest it. It may take a week or so (especially if it rains) but this non-hazardous, pet and children safe remedy works like a charm!

Wa ki liao Weeds
When gardening, add wet newspaper in layers around your newly potted plants (be sure to mix the nutrients well with soil prior), cover with mulch and voila, the weeds will not be able to get through!

Hasta la vista garden pests
You’ll need neem tree leaves for this remedy. Once sourced, boil, cool then spray the area around your vegetable garden. Unfortunately, the aroma of this natural insect repellant is not so pleasant but the trade off is YOU get to eat what you grow.

Ciao cockroaches
Definitely very high on our ‘get of rid bug’ list, these little creatures can be eradicated by mixing together a one to one ratio of baking soda & granulated sugar. Place this lethal concoction in small containers around the house with another small container of just water next to it. Try it![/twocol_one] [twocol_one_last]
