We live in rural Ohio, next to a field with cattle, so flies are always a terrible problem. I tried this recipe, and am amazed at the result. Our house has not one, but 3 big doggie doors! (see the problem???). Okay, the weather for the last 3 weeks has been cooler - 80+ degrees --, but all of us are amazed at the result. Yes, the flies still get in, but they don't stay! Its amazing. Even our neighbors & friends have commented about "where'd the flies go?". It's early August, so surely the weather will warm up, but I'm hoping, hoping....

I mix peppermint oil with water for a spray. Ants, Mosquitos, Wasps and flies stay away. I even spray me when I head to the woods or garden. I put a few drops of lemon or whatever scent I want on my vacuum cleaner bag and the filter for the central heat/air. Instant whole house scent. And if I do get bit I use a mentholatum rub like Vic's. I found a roll on at Amazon. It is a petroleum product and I do stay away from those. But If I get chiggar bites for instance Mentholatum is my go to. About 3 applications when itching reoccurs and no more itch. Works for mosquitos bites also. Wasp takes a lot more applications and doesn't remove the pain but sincerely dulls it. I haven't had poison ivy yet. That's my next experiment. Remembered another. Diatomaceous earth. Food grade, not the stuff for pool filters. I use this to 'relocate' ant hills. It is not a deterrent. It is like throwing down piles of broken glass to us. Cuts their exoskeleton. I had a nest of field ants next to the garage man door. Ants either relocated or died but they are gone.

Great !!! Thank you so much ! Greetings from Austria / Europe

I usually put a bay leaf and a clove in my tea already just because I like the taste...and because bay leaves are narcotics (I know most people are unaware) which relax me. I wonder if that tea I've been drinking helps to keep mosquitos from wanting to bite me. As I'm drinking the tea, the steam is leaving the cup, so that might help keep them away in the moment, but I wonder if later there is a slight scent of bay leaves and cloves that can smell near my skin. On a side note, if you want to get a similar high from bay leaves, but don't want to consume water they've been boiled in, you can always burn the bay leaves in a dish near you (1 or 2 will do the trick), and let the smoke float around the room for about 10 minutes as you go about your business. A relaxing way to end the day, and the leaves crackle and look cool as they burn. Obviously be safe anytime you mess with fire.

I have a catio that allows bugs to come in around it since it’s not complete screening, so I tried this out as a wash on the doorway and have a pan of the cloves simmering while the catio is in use, more water than the recipe calls for so it doesn’t boil away. It does seem to help some but mainly also need a light to attract eh bugs away from the doorway. This might help some. But it’s not a complete solution for my situation.

Good info to know; I didn't know cloves worked so well for mosquitoes. I've used lavender for years; mosquitoes suddenly leave me alone the instant I get the lavender oil out. Also good to know: peppermint is great for deterring ants from homesteading around your house. If you bought an old house and have what you thought was an invasive mint "infestation" no what you have is a previous occupant who knew things you didn't. Now try to find some ants. They won't be there. Bonus--my mother taught me to always put a bay leaf into the flour canister and the bags of dried beans and rice. Voila! no weevils!

Hola cariños desde Australia 🇦🇺 otra chilena que también tiene problemas con zancudos, espero que resulte se ve bien natural esta receta 👍

Awesome thanks 🙏

For Christmas I used to cover an oranje completely with cloves by sticking them in the orange. After I started this habit never saw an ant in the house again. And it smells delicious. When I was watching the house of our neighbours, who were on holiday, I discovered one of there kitchen cabinets full of ants. Put som cloves in them. Next day the ants were gone. When the neighbours returned they were wondering what that cloves were doing in their kitchen. 😄 But I didn’t know it also worked against flies.

Thank you. Really helpful ideas. I've read previous comments and it sounds as if these ingredients really do work well 😁👍 P.S WARNING it's just been brought to my attention that cloves are dangerous as in deadly to cats and dogs plus other animals so please be warned thank you.

Why have a warning about cloves and animals? Why would anybody give a dog or a cat cloves anyway? Thousands of things that you cook with are probably deadly for dogs and cats.

@@Livetoeat171 Someone notified me in a comment that cloves were deadly to dogs, cats and other animals. Its only fare to pass on the info so people can make an informed choice whether to use them or not. I don't think people would feed cloves to animals but incase the spray contaminated their drinking water or if the spray came in contact with their fur or paws which was then digested afterwards. Yes lots of other things are poisonous as well but as cloves were part of the ingredients here I wanted to pass that on to others to decide for themselves.

I don't know any cat or dog who'd want to chow down on cloves! As with chocolate (dark chocolate at about 70% or higher of cacao), it would require quite a bit of cloves to do any damage, more than what would be sprayed on a surface area. Nonetheless, it's important to be aware.

Gave the recipe right away. Like that.

About 50 years ago most butchers in our area put in about 30 cloves into an orange or lemon( at least one per square meter) , looking it like a hedgehog , never saw any flies in those counters .

Very interesting information. I have a few questions though. What is the shelf life of this spray. Can you prepare larger amounts?

I didn’t see any mention about specifically repelling flies, just ants and mosquitoes.

Will surely try it very simple

My husband suffers terribly from mosquito bites. They love him, for some reason, and we’ve had little luck keeping them at bay. I love the option to try this instead of just annihilating the poor insects with a chemical spray. Thanks for sharing!

Eat lots of food containing Vitamin B12 (Marmite or Vegemite). I hate Vegemite and Marmite so found that mixing White Lavender Oil with my body lotion ( mix a few drops with your body lotion in a separate container) and rubbing it on my exposed skin works great. Also spraying my exposed skin with the oil works (decant it in one of those mini spray bottles you can keep in your handbag).

High dosaged Vitamin B1 helps keeping them away from a person. The excess amount of the vitamin is not the least bit harmful, the body just gets rid of it with the pee, which is the reason the pee will be more yellow and smell differently, so don't be alarmed if it does look different.

I use peppermint oil sprays around my house and seem to work fine for ants, spiders, and also rodents. Saves me time in finding and mixing a whole bunch of ingredients mentioned in this video. Other videos recommend Peppermint also for bugs.

Thanks a lot!

I don't use any chemicals on my property, so knowing there is a good natural alternative is awesome. I use peppermint oil on cotton balls to keep mice at bay and it works great. For some reason, they like the cabinet where I store the Tupperware and I got tired of having to wash everything twice before using it, so I tried this. Thanks for the great information and I can't wait to make some!

Natural remedy to rid of mice and rats and is safe for all other animals is equal parts of Jiffy Cornbread Mix and baking soda, put in a plastic container with lid, put holes in the side of container to let critters into container, put in areas where they will find mixture. Check containers and change out mixture. This was originally found in a yt channel video.

It will stop the pain & itch. Leave it on longer (1-4 hours) & swelling goes away & hardly looks like you were even gotten. ALSO. It will stop minor bleeding very fast & is antiseptic.
