How to Get Rid of Fleas, Ants, and Cockroaches from Your Home Forever With Natural Substances!
Tired of battling pests in your home? Instead of reaching for harsh chemicals, why not try natural, safe, and effective remedies to keep fleas, ants, and cockroaches at bay? With the right substances, you can rid your home of these pests once and for all—and keep your living space safe for your family and pets!
What You Need:
Diatomaceous Earth (Food Grade)
Baking Soda
Cinnamon or Cinnamon Oil
Vinegar
Essential Oils (like Peppermint, Eucalyptus, or Tea Tree)
Lemon Peel or Lemons
How to Do It:
Diatomaceous Earth for Fleas and Cockroaches:
Sprinkle Diatomaceous Earth (Food Grade) in areas where fleas and cockroaches are commonly found, such as under furniture, along baseboards, and in corners.
The fine powder works by dehydrating insects and causing them to die. It’s safe for pets and humans but deadly for pests.
Baking Soda for Ants and Fleas:
Mix baking soda with sugar and sprinkle it near ant trails. The sugar attracts the ants, and the baking soda will disrupt their digestive system, leading to their elimination.
For fleas, sprinkle baking soda directly on carpets, then vacuum it up after a few hours to help get rid of fleas and their eggs.
Cinnamon for Ants and Cockroaches:
Sprinkle ground cinnamon in areas where you’ve noticed ants or cockroaches. You can also use cinnamon oil diluted in water to wipe down surfaces or spray it in the areas where pests hide.
The strong scent of cinnamon is a natural deterrent that ants and cockroaches dislike.
Vinegar Spray for Ants:
Mix equal parts vinegar and water in a spray bottle and spray it directly on ant trails, in cracks, and on surfaces where ants are present.
Vinegar disrupts the scent trails ants leave behind, which helps prevent them from coming back.
Essential Oils for Fleas, Ants, and Cockroaches:
Peppermint, eucalyptus, or tea tree oils are powerful insect repellents. Add 10-15 drops of any of these oils to a spray bottle filled with water and shake well. Spray it in areas where pests tend to hide.
The strong smell will repel fleas, ants, and cockroaches.
Lemon Peel or Fresh Lemons for Ants:
Lemon peels or fresh lemon juice can be rubbed along windowsills, doors, or cracks where ants enter. The acidity and strong scent of lemons repel ants and keep them from entering your home.
Why This Works:
Natural Pest Deterrents: The substances above are natural, non-toxic, and effective at eliminating and repelling common household pests.
Safe for Pets and Family: Unlike harsh chemical sprays, these natural substances won’t pose any harm to your pets or family.
Affordable & Easy to Use: All of these ingredients are budget-friendly and easy to find in your home or local store!
Bonus Tip: For persistent infestations, keep applying these remedies for a few weeks and focus on cleaning up food crumbs and sealing up entry points to keep pests from coming back.
