Dealing with household pests like fleas, ants, and cockroaches can be frustrating. But you don’t need to turn to harsh chemical sprays to solve the problem. A natural, homemade solution can be just as effective—while being much safer for your family and pets.
Many commercial pest control products contain toxic ingredients that may pose health risks. That’s why more people are turning to natural alternatives made from everyday household items.
One of the most effective natural pest repellents combines white vinegar and water. Mix equal parts in a spray bottle and apply it around entry points, baseboards, and areas where pests are commonly seen.
Lemon juice is another great option. The strong citrus scent disrupts scent trails that ants use to navigate, making your home less inviting.
