Brilio.net - Air fresheners are often a practical solution to maintain a fresh scent in the house. However, many chemical air fresheners have a scent that is too strong, so it can make you dizzy and uncomfortable. This overly strong scent not only interferes with the sense of smell, but can also trigger allergic reactions or respiratory problems for some people. This problem is often caused by the content of chemicals such as phthalates and benzene in air fresheners. These ingredients can produce a strong and long-lasting scent, but also have the potential for negative impacts on health.
Long-term exposure to these chemicals can even contribute to more serious health problems, such as hormonal disorders and chronic respiratory problems. To overcome these problems, many people have started turning to natural air fresheners, including Instagram user @indah3yani. In one of the videos she uploaded, she shared a trick for making a natural air freshener that lasts a long time. In addition, another advantage of this homemade air freshener is its ability to repel insects, such as mosquitoes and flies.
As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @indah3yani on Monday (12/16), the natural ingredients used are pandan leaves and olive oil. Both of these natural ingredients can be easily found in the kitchen. In addition to being easy, these ingredients are also very cheap and easy to get.

Well, how to make the air freshener is quite easy. In a container, put pandan leaves that have been cut into small pieces. After that, pour the pandan leaves with a little olive oil. If so, place this air freshener in the corners of the house or areas that are often visited by mosquitoes and flies.
"A natural air freshener that is calming and doesn't make you dizzy. If you want a stronger scent, you can put 2 bowls in the room. And place it where it is exposed to the air conditioner or fan," said Instagram user @indah3yani.

Pandan leaves are known for their distinctive and fresh aroma. Not only as a natural fragrance in the house, pandan leaves are also able to repel insects such as cockroaches, mosquitoes or flies. Meanwhile, olive oil can be used as a carrier for essential oils that enhance the aroma of pandan leaves.
