Place This in Your Home and Say Goodbye to Flies, Mosquitoes, and Cockroaches
Tired of pests turning your home into a battleground? Instead of reaching for chemical sprays, try this simple DIY solution using items you likely already have.
This natural repellent combines strong scents and safe chemical reactions to drive away flies, mosquitoes, and cockroaches. Peppermint, toothpaste, baking soda, and vinegar create a minty, fizzing blend that overwhelms insects’ senses and disrupts their scent trails—making your home an unwelcome place for them.
What You’ll Need:
-
1 tbsp mint toothpaste
-
1 tbsp baking soda
-
1 tbsp white vinegar
-
120 ml warm water
-
5–10 drops peppermint essential oil (optional)
-
Small shallow containers
Instructions:
Mix toothpaste and baking soda, slowly add vinegar, stir in water, and finish with essential oil. Pour into containers and place in pest-prone spots: near bins, under sinks, behind appliances.

Refresh every 2–3 days. Apply along baseboards with a cotton swab for extra protection.
Enjoy a fresher, calmer, and pest-free home—naturally.
