Mosquito repellent plants include mosquito repellent, lavender, mint, thyme, calendula, pyrethrum, cordate telosma and so on.

1, mosquito repellent tastes good, but it looks small and the price is very cheap. Suitable for 2-3 pots at home, like bright environment very much. Can be placed in places where mosquitoes are easy to produce, such as window sills. It is said that a 25 cm-high mosquito repellent grass repels mosquitoes within the range of 10 square meter, so be careful not to over-water during maintenance, otherwise it will be easy to drown.

2. Thyme, which can be used as seasoning, is also a mosquito repellent plant with good effect. If there are dry herbs burning, it can repel mosquitoes better. Thyme likes light. It is recommended to maintain the balcony, so that the soil in the basin can grow better if it is a little dry. Raising a pot of mint in summer is very practical, which can not only repel mosquitoes, but also cool off the heat and deodorize. You can live on the balcony or in the dark toilet.

3, lavender perennial herbs or shrubs, said to be grass, is actually a purple-blue flower. There are oil glands on the soft hairs of flowers, leaves and stems, which will burst and emit fragrance when touched lightly. This fragrance can make people awake, feel comfortable and drive away mosquitoes and flies. Lavender can help you sleep if you leave it at home. June-August is the flowering period, which has strong heat resistance and is good for the environment.
