Dealing with unwanted pests like cockroaches and lizards can be a real nuisance. However, there’s a simple, natural remedy that can help you get rid of these pests quickly and effectively – the magic onion. This everyday kitchen ingredient can be transformed into a powerful pest control solution, helping you maintain a clean and pest-free home. Here’s how you can use onions to tackle cockroaches and lizards within just five minutes, without the need for any harmful chemicals or unhealthy oils.
Why Onions?
Onions contain sulfur compounds that are not only pungent but also act as natural repellents for many pests. The strong odor and acidic nature of onions can deter and even kill pests like cockroaches and lizards.
Ingredients:
- 1 large onion
- 1 tablespoon of baking soda
- 1 tablespoon of water
- A small bowl
- A spray bottle
Instructions:
- Prepare the Onion: Start by finely chopping the onion. You want to release as much of the onion’s natural juice as possible, as this is what makes it effective against pests.
- Mix with Baking Soda: In a small bowl, combine the chopped onion with one tablespoon of baking soda. Baking soda enhances the effectiveness of the onion by making the environment even more inhospitable for pests.
- Add Water: Add a tablespoon of water to the mixture to help blend the ingredients and make it easier to apply.
- Create the Paste: Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until you have a thick paste.
