Homemade Trick to Eliminate Cockroaches and Flies in the Home

🪳 Homemade Cockroach Trap

Cockroaches hide in dark, damp places, such as behind the refrigerator, under the sink, or in cracks in walls. This remedy is ideal for attracting and safely eliminating them.

✅ Ingredients:

2 tablespoons of baking soda
2 tablespoons of white sugar
Bottle caps or small containers

🧪 Preparation and use:

Mix baking soda and sugar in equal parts.

Place the mixture in the caps.

Distribute them in areas where cockroaches tend to appear.

Why does it work?

The sugar acts as bait, attracting cockroaches, while the baking soda reacts in their stomachs, generating gases that their bodies cannot eliminate, effectively killing them.

🪰 Natural Remedy to Repel Flies

Flies are attracted to leftover food, ripe fruit, and garbage. This trick is ideal for keeping them away from your home.

✅ You need:

Half a lemon

Cloves (spices)

Small plate or decorative container

🍋 Preparation and use:

Cut the lemon in half.

Insert several cloves into the lemon pulp.

Place the lemon on tables, windowsills, or in the kitchen.

How does it work?

The lemon scent combined with the cloves acts as a natural repellent. Although it has a pleasant smell for us, it is very unpleasant for flies, which keeps them away.

🧼 Additional recommendations

Keep the house clean, especially the kitchen and bathrooms.

Seal cracks and gaps where insects can enter.

Empty the trash every day.

Don’t leave food uncovered.
