Brilio.net - Wood is often chosen as the main material for household furniture because of its durable, elegant, and sturdy nature. Some types of wood that are commonly used include teak, mahogany, and trembesi. Each of these types of wood offers its own uniqueness and advantages, making it a favorite choice for many people who want to add aesthetics and durability to their home furnishings.
Although known to be sturdy, wooden furniture requires extra care to keep it durable. One of the main challenges in maintaining wooden furniture is the threat of insects such as termites. Termites often come unnoticed and can cause serious damage by eating away at the wood. Wooden windows and doors, which are usually located at the front of the house, are often the main targets of these insects.
To prevent termite damage, many people choose to use commercially available anti-termite drugs. However, there is also a more economical alternative way by utilizing materials available at home. As demonstrated by a man on the YouTube account IDE KREATIF CHANNEL, with just two kitchen ingredients, wooden furniture can be protected from termite attacks. This simple trick offers a practical solution for anyone who wants to maintain the beauty and durability of wooden furniture at home.
"If you have termites in your house, here I want to give you a recipe on how to get rid of them using simple ingredients, you definitely have them in your house," he said, quoted by brilio.net from YouTube IDE KREATIF CHANNEL on Monday (17/2).
First, prepare a glass and fill it with MSG and salt, 1 tablespoon each. Reported from mast-producing-trees.org, salt and MSG can work to disrupt the balance of termite metabolism. That's why after being given these two kitchen spices, the termites will slowly run away or even die.

After preparing salt and MSG, dissolve both of these ingredients with enough water. Then, transfer the solution into a spray bottle or any spray available at home. Once done, spray it directly onto wooden furniture that has termites in it.
"For example, if there are nails, don't spray them, okay," added the owner of the YouTube account IDE KREATIF CHANNEL.
As reported by vedantu.com, liquids containing salt should not be applied to metal items, as they can cause rust to appear.
