Garlic Power: Natural Repellent for Kitchen Pests

Peel and crush the garlic cloves.

Boil 2 cups of water and add the crushed garlic.

Let it simmer for 5–10 minutes, then cool.

Strain the mixture and pour it into a spray bottle.

Optional: Add a few drops of vinegar or essential oils for stronger repellent action.

Spray around windows, doors, garbage bins, under sinks, and dark corners where pests may hide.
