With the beginning of the summer season, in the homes of many Italians, the specter of bedbugs reoccurs. In addition to the Mediterranean green bed bugs (Nizara virdula), the presence of so-called brown bed bugs, ie Asian bedbugs, has been more and more common for some years. These are two insects that feed on leaves, fruits and vegetables. The bugs are extremely annoying because they emit an unpleasant odor to remove predators and it is therefore inadvisable to crush them, if you do not want to incur this problem . In addition to eliminating them manually, there are other remedies that will allow you to eliminate green and brown bedbugs from your home . So, before resorting to an insecticide for bedbugs, consider the following methods because they guarantee an excellent result.
Use garlic as a natural pesticide
Another natural remedy to eliminate green bedbugs from home is garlic. It is in fact a very strong antiparasitic that protects the gardens from insects. Instead, to protect your home, you could plant a bulb of garlic in the pots in the balcony or spray a mixture of water and garlic on the leaves . In this way, keep the bugs away from your homes. If you want a greater effect, spread a few cloves of garlic at home, always near the windows , then on windowsills or sideboards, and have confidence because it will work perfectly.
Diatomaceous Earth is another valid remedy
If you do not know how to get rid of the bugs from your home, try to consider this additional method as well. It is diatomaceous earth. The latter is a sedimentary rock formed thanks to the sediments of ancient algae dating back millions of years. It has been proven that his presence removes the bedbugs. So place this rock at the corners of your home and close to windows and balconies . In this way you will remove the boring insects.
The effectiveness of Tea tree oil
If you still have doubts about how to eliminate brown bugs, you can resort to this last remedy: tea tree oil. It is a natural product that acts as an excellent repellent because it emits a very intense scent that is not very welcome to bedbugs. How to apply? Simple. When you make a washing machine, add tea tree oil to the normal detergent. In this way, when you spread the clothes on the balcony the bugs will not approach because they will smell intense.
