IF you are fed up with flies and mosquitoes invading your home, then fear not, you’ve come to the right place. For many, summer is a time when most people want to relax in the sun and enjoy the warm weather - but there’s nothing worse than having to deal with pests buzzing around and getting in your face. In particular, flies and mosquitoes are very common in the summer months, as it is the ideal temperature for them to breed.
Not only this, but during this season, there are fewer food sources available, meaning they are more likely to go into homes in search of something to eat. And if you don’t want these insects flying around your kitchen and landing on your dinner, then don’t worry, we’ve got just the thing for you. It turns out that certain houseplants can keep away flies and mosquitoes - and one will cost you just £1.

Adriana Camilleri, a pest control expert from Hoselink , has shared that using plants to deter flies and mosquitoes is not only effective, but an environmentally and safe way to prevent bugs from coming into your home. She said: “When controlling these pests, it’s important to understand why they hang around.
“They’re not purposely trying to pester us, but are merely going about their natural activity. “Knowing the plants these insects dislike is valuable knowledge we can use to help keep them at bay.” According to Adriana, whilst many humans love the scent of Lavender, for bugs, it’s a totally different story.
