And don’t forget about your plants’ pots: if you water the soil too much, even the saucers of your pots can accumulate stagnant water that will attract mosquitoes and other insects. If you sprinkle a little coffee grounds or coffee grounds on the soil of your plants, you will not only prevent mosquitoes from appearing, but you will also protect your plants from insects and parasites.
With a single, simple ingredient, you can create a powerful mosquito repellent capable of keeping these annoying insects away from your home and your skin
