How to make mosquito repellent that is simple, effective, and free of the strong smell of smoke.
Reported by BrilioFood from YouTube Erdi Story on Sunday (5/5), the kitchen ingredient in question is dishwashing soap. However, apart from dishwashing soap, he also uses other ingredients, namely mosquito coils. So, so that this mosquito repellent can be used without burning it, he mixed it with dish soap.

To be clearer, first cut the mosquito coil into several small pieces. After that, place it in a bowl. If so, add enough water until it is completely submerged.

Only then, pour 1 tablespoon of dish soap into the bowl containing the mosquito repellent. Stir again until all these ingredients are mixed evenly. If so, add enough water and stir again.
Next, let it sit for 5 minutes so that the mosquito repellent dissolves further in the water. After that, transfer this liquid into a spray bottle. Then close the bottle and spray this liquid in all parts of the house that are often visited by mosquitoes. That way, the aroma emitted from this liquid will make mosquitoes die and leave by themselves.
