Brilio.net - Every individual has their own method to keep their home comfortable, calm, and clean. However, there are often disturbances that arise, such as the presence of mosquitoes. These insects can come and go as they please, and are often difficult to eradicate. Even though you have used special mosquito sprays or repellent, mosquitoes can still survive and hide in the corners of the house, such as in the kitchen, bedroom, or other rooms.
When mosquitoes start to bother with buzzing or biting sounds, comfort is disturbed. As an alternative to conventional methods, a netizen named Yasir shared an easy way to repel mosquitoes that can be practiced easily. Yasir successfully conducted an experiment to make mosquito repellent using only kitchen ingredients. Although simple, this method is considered very effective in repelling mosquitoes so that they do not come back again.
"Don't be surprised, only in this way, the house will be free from mosquitoes forever," he said, quoted by brilio.net from TikTok @yasir_hamdani on Thursday (20/2).
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.
