Baking powder, with its innate properties, not only repels the bedbugs but also prevents future infestations.
Other Natural Alternatives to Combat Bedbugs:
Garlic Spray: Dissolve a garlic clove in a liter of boiling water. Let it steep in the refrigerator for a week, then strain and transfer to a spray bottle. The potent smell of garlic is a strong deterrent for bedbugs.
Diatomaceous Earth: Available at garden centers, this natural remedy can be sprinkled around the garden, in quantities depending on the severity of the infestation.
Herb Solutions: Bedbugs dislike strong smells. Consider making sprays based on rosemary, basil, or sage. These herbs not only keep the bugs at bay but also add a pleasant aroma to your garden.
By employing these natural remedies, you’re not only ensuring a bedbug-free garden but also maintaining a chemical-free, eco-friendly environment. Happy gardening!
