1. For Flies: Apple Cider Vinegar Trap
Flies are attracted to sweet and sour scents, making this trap irresistible.
What You’ll Need :
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1–2 drops dish soap
1 tbsp sugar
A small bowl or jar
Instructions :
Mix the apple cider vinegar, sugar, and dish soap in a small bowl or jar.
Place the mixture in areas where flies are most active (e.g., kitchen counters, near trash cans).
The sugar attracts the flies, while the dish soap breaks the surface tension, causing them to drown.
Tip : Add a few drops of peppermint essential oil to repel flies naturally.
2. For Cockroaches: Baking Soda & Sugar Bait
Cockroaches are drawn to sweet scents but can’t digest baking soda, which acts as a natural poison.
What You’ll Need :
- 1 part baking soda
- 1 part sugar
- Water (optional, to form a paste)
Instructions :
- Mix equal parts baking soda and sugar in a shallow dish. Add a small amount of water if needed to form a paste.
- Place the mixture in areas where cockroaches are commonly seen (e.g., under sinks, behind appliances).
- The sugar attracts the roaches, while the baking soda reacts with their stomach acids, eliminating them.
Additional Tips :
- Scatter bay leaves or lemon peels around your home to deter cockroaches naturally.
- Seal cracks and crevices to prevent them from entering your space.
