Home / Make your own home-made natural mosquito repellent
Every year, mosquitoes colonise a little bit more of our towns and countryside. It is therefore essential to prepare for summer properly and make sure you have a mosquito solution, be it a natural repellent or other mosquito traps, to tackle the summer season. But, faced with so many products on the market, how can you choose between them? The supermarket aisles are full of sprays for your skin, sprays or products which circulate in the air, natural or chemical repellents, mosquito traps, UV lamps, ultrasound devices and products based on essential oils.…
There are more and more of these products and they are not always effective or natural. But, above all, their price varies enormously! So, today we’re going to give you 3 tips and recipes for natural mosquito repellents you can make yourself at home.
Most of the mosquito candles found in shops do not have any repellent or insecticide effect! Why? They are only perfumed with citronella and do not contain any active substance to repel mosquitoes. We, on the other hand, have chosen citronella essential oil because these oils help to repel mosquitoes naturally. Mixed with wax, the essential oils will circulate in the air permanently, creating a repellent effect and spreading a nice aroma.
There you have it! A perfect, homemade natural repellent!
Here’s a variation on the recipe for a citronella mosquito repellent candle with the same properties and the same ingredients.
The best thing about this natural, homemade tip for keeping mosquitoes away? You can make several and alternate different scents to vary the pleasure!
To go with your mosquito candles which you have placed around your patio, you can also use a natural mosquito repellent spray to avoid being bitten too much. They are very easy to make and can be used by the whole family. Warning: they should be used with care. Moreover, they are not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, children under 7 or people with allergies.

These natural homemade mosquito repellents are very easy to make. However, they are not very effective against a real invasion. Their effect is very localised and their effectiveness is relative. So, these are tips to be adopted alongside a real mosquito repellent or control solution.
If you have a garden and would like to use it without being bothered by mosquitoes, we advise you to get proper mosquito traps which will have a far greater range and are truly effective, such as Qista’s Smart BAM trap.
Beware of tutorials on making natural mosquito traps yourself! As well as not being effective, they will attract wasps, hornets and midges without working on mosquitoes. Give these tutorials a miss. Choose proper mosquito control solutions which really work.
