Humid environments often cause discomfort with lingering moldy smells, sticky air, and unwelcome guests—cockroaches! Try peppermint oil, which provides natural deodorizing and antibacterial effects, a refreshing aroma, and excellent insect repellent properties. A few simple steps can keep your home clean and pest-free, eliminating household odors completely!
Natural Peppermint Spray for Insect Control, Worry-Free and Effective
Peppermint oil’s refreshing aroma is uplifting to people but repels cockroaches and small insects. Making a peppermint insect-repellent spray is easy: mix 20 drops of peppermint oil, 10ml of alcohol, and 90ml of water in a spray bottle. Spray in dark areas like kitchens, trash bins, or cabinets to keep roaches away. Avoid spraying near eyes to prevent discomfort.

Peppermint Salt, Easy Cockroach and Bug Prevention
If a spray seems cumbersome, peppermint salt is an even easier solution! Simply put a small dish of salt with 5–10 drops of peppermint oil in areas where roaches frequent, like kitchen corners or inside cabinets. Replace as needed for constant freshness.
Peppermint Cleaner, for Cleaning and Deodorizing in One Step
Cleaning bathrooms and kitchens is essential, but regular cleaners often contain harsh chemicals. Make a peppermint cleaner by mixing a cup of soap powder and a cup of baking soda with 20 drops of peppermint oil. Shake well and use for toilet or sink cleaning. It provides gentle, antibacterial deodorizing without harming your hands.
Mix peppermint oil with alcohol, then add water and pour it into a spray bottle. It’s especially suitable for dark corners like kitchens, trash bins, and air conditioners. Avoid contact with eyes. (Image/Heho)
