- ½ cup of regular shampoo (any basic kind will do)
- ½ cup of vegetable oil
- ½ cup of white vinegar
How to make it:
- In a bowl, mix all three ingredients thoroughly.
- Pour the mixture into a clean spray bottle.
- Shake well before each use.
This blend can be sprayed on window sills, door frames, under cabinets, and along baseboards. The vinegar helps repel insects, the oil coats surfaces and makes it hard for pests to settle, and the shampoo helps the mixture stick.
