Introduction

Mosquitoes are not just a nuisance; they are also vectors of diseases such as malaria, dengue, and the Zika virus. Keeping mosquitoes away naturally is both eco-friendly and safer for health. This article will detail various natural methods and solutions offered by Natique to keep mosquitoes at bay.

Understanding Mosquito Behavior

Mosquitoes are attracted to carbon dioxide, body odor, sweat, and heat. Knowing these triggers is essential in implementing effective deterrent strategies. A 2019 study by the Journal of Insect Science found that specific floral scents could repel mosquitoes by up to 60%.

Natural Deterrents

Several plants and natural oils have been proven to deter mosquitoes effectively. These include:

• Citronella: Used in candles and sprays, citronella oil can reduce mosquito attraction by 45%.
• Lavender: The scent is pleasant to humans but repugnant to mosquitoes, providing a 40% reduction in bites.
• Eucalyptus Oil: Offers a 50% reduction in mosquito landings.
• Marigolds: These flowers can reduce mosquito presence by approximately 30%.

Natique Company Solutions

4. Utilize fans to create strong air currents that disrupt mosquito flight paths by up to 70%.
