From now on, it has already entered the peak period of mosquito activity, even if the day of "fighting" with mosquitoes begins. With children at home, chemical mosquito repellent is definitely inappropriate. To meet this psychological demand, mosquito repellent plants with green, non-polluting and refreshing functions are popular in the market. As the weather gets hotter, flower and bird markets and supermarkets, peppermint, vanilla, pitcher grass and mosquito repellent plants are often placed in prominent positions. The brand "mosquito repellent" always attracts a lot of attention.

　　How many pots of mosquito repellent plants are kept at home, so mosquitoes dare not come in summer? Experts pointed out that most of the plants labeled "mosquito repellent plants" may not be so "god" as the merchants said. Whether the effect depends on the actual situation, and don't expect too much before purchasing.

　　At present, there are two main types of mosquito repellent plants on the market. One is the plants with strong aroma, especially various vanilla plants, such as mosquito repellent grass, nocturnal primrose, mint, lemon grass, schizonepeta, basil, rosemary, marigold and so on. The other is plants with the ability to predate insects, such as fly traps, pitcher plants and other insectivorous plants.

　　Experts pointed out that citronellol, citral and other substances in vanilla plants do have a certain role in avoiding insects, they themselves are plant defense weapons. However, there are certain evasive effects. Whether the protection against mosquito bites depends on the distance between people and plants (the closer they are, the more likely they are surrounded by mosquito repellent aroma), plant density and growth status (insufficient or not good enough, mosquito repellent aroma is limited). Many vanilla plants do not release volatile compounds all the time. Some need to be stimulated, such as physical damage such as gnawing, to release large quantities. Therefore, if you want to use vanilla plants to repel mosquitoes, I'm afraid you need to surround yourself with them and stimulate them from time to time, in order to form a "barrier" of mosquito-repellent aroma and ensure that nothing is lost! Therefore, it is unreliable to place several pots of mosquito repellent plants in the family. The key is to pay attention to cleaning and hygiene and physical mosquito control.

　　It must also be emphasized that it is inappropriate for ornamental mosquito repellent plants to be placed too closely because they release large amounts of carbon dioxide at night, which may cause allergies, nausea, headaches and other symptoms in relatively closed spaces.

　　Summer mosquito repellent, screens, mosquito nets, safe and environmentally friendly and affordable!

　　In families with babies, mosquito repellents should be cautious with chemicals such as mosquito incense and aerosol. Common sprays, mosquito-repellent incense and mosquito repellent liquid contain chemical components, mosquito-repellent incense contains pyrethroids, which can cause harm to infants. Therefore, it is better to use physical methods to repel mosquitoes. For example: screen door, mosquito killing racket and mosquito killing lamp (mosquito killing lamp manufacturer). Mosquito nets are safe and non-toxic. They not only have good mosquito control effect, but also have a sense of security for babies in a small space inside the nets. Screen doors and windows must match and match their frames, and the gap between them should not be too large to prevent mosquitoes from entering. The most simple and effective way to prevent mosquitoes in summer is to hang mosquito nets at home, which is safe and healthy.
