Wash your jar thoroughly and make sure it’s dry. A clean jar keeps your mixture fresh and free of bacteria.
Place lemon and lime slices into the jar. Add several sprigs of rosemary. These ingredients naturally repel mosquitoes while creating a lovely aroma.
Pour in your citronella, eucalyptus, and lavender oils. These powerful plant extracts are known for their insect‑repelling properties and will boost the effectiveness of your repellent.
Top the jar with water, leaving about an inch from the top. Gently stir to disperse the oils.
Place a floating tea light on top and light it when you’re outdoors. The gentle heat helps release the oils into the air, creating a larger protective radius.
✅ Place one jar on each outdoor table, near seating areas, or around patios.
✅ For larger areas, make several jars and spread them out evenly.
✅ Replace water and oils every 2–3 days to maintain effectiveness.
With just a mason jar and a few simple ingredients, you can create a natural mosquito control solution that keeps your outdoor spaces enjoyable and safe. No more harsh chemicals, no more constant spraying—just a fresh, fragrant jar that blends beautifully with your backyard decor.
Try it tonight and enjoy summer evenings without the buzz and bites! 🕯️🌿🦟
