If you’re looking for one all-around solution, this eco-friendly bug spray does the job beautifully. It combines common household items to create a powerful but gentle repellent.
What you’ll need:
- ½ cup of regular shampoo (any basic kind will do)
- ½ cup of vegetable oil
- ½ cup of white vinegar
- In a bowl, mix all three ingredients thoroughly.
- Pour the mixture into a clean spray bottle.
- Shake well before each use.
This blend can be sprayed on window sills, door frames, under cabinets, and along baseboards. The vinegar helps repel insects, the oil coats surfaces and makes it hard for pests to settle, and the shampoo helps the mixture stick.
Best of all, it smells clean and leaves no harsh chemical fumes behind — so you can breathe easy while protecting your home.
