2 cups of water
1 cup of white vinegar (acts as a deterrent for many insects)
1 whole lemon, sliced (citrus scent repels mosquitoes and flies)
5–6 cloves (their aroma is known to repel various pests)
5 drops of lavender essential oil (optional, for additional pest-repelling power and pleasant aroma)
Tip: If you’re missing any of these items, feel free to use what you have. Even a couple of the ingredients can make an impact.
