Brilio.net - Everyone has their own way to keep their home comfortable, calm, and clean. However, sometimes there are disturbances such as mosquitoes that are difficult to eradicate. Mosquitoes can come and go as they please, even though they have used a spray or special mosquito repellent, they can still survive and hide in corners of the house such as the kitchen, bedroom, or other rooms. Mosquitoes that make a buzzing sound or bite the skin are certainly very annoying.
Instead of using the old way, a netizen named Yasir has an easy way to repel mosquitoes that can be practiced. Yasir successfully conducted an experiment to make mosquito repellent using only kitchen ingredients. Although simple, this method is very effective in repelling mosquitoes so they don't come again.
"Don't be surprised, only in this way, the house will be free from mosquitoes forever," he said, quoted from TikTok @yasir_hamdani on Monday (23/9).
So, prepare a small bowl first. Fill the bowl with 2 tablespoons of coffee powder. Sprinkle the coffee with 1 stalk of chopped lemongrass. Then, stir until both are evenly mixed.

Well, one more kitchen ingredient that must be there is vegetable oil. The vegetable oil can be smeared on a tissue that has been rolled neatly. Then, stick the tissue into the coffee and lemongrass mixture in the bowl.
Place a bowl containing the mosquito repellent mixture in any corner of the house where mosquitoes often hide. After that, burn the tissue and leave it until the aroma of coffee and lemongrass spreads throughout the room. Guaranteed, mosquitoes don't like the smell and leave the house.
