Nearly 4 million people die each year from various mosquito related diseases throughout the world. Besides the familiar itch that we get after being bit by one of these little blood suckers, there are also many serious illnesses that could be carried in their bites, including: malaria, west Nile virus, Dengue fever, and dog heart worm among many others.All too often in "mainstream treatments", the "cure" is often as bad or worse that the original problem. Mike Adams, The Health Ranger notes that popular mosquito repellents available at most retail outlets contain chemicals that cause neurological damage from soaking through the skin.
Here is an easy way to make some effective, all natural mosquito repellent that also works for ants, fleas and can be used for fleas on pets.
Ingredients:
1/2 litre of alcohol
100 gram of whole cloves
100 ml of baby oil or similar (almond, sesame, chamomile, lavender, fennel etc)
Preparation:
Leave cloves to marinate in alcohol four days
Stir every morning and evening
After 4 days add the oil
It's now ready to use.
How to use:
Gently rub a few drops into the skin of the arms and legs.
Observe the mosquitoes fleeing the room.
What is efficacy!
