This is truly a godsend in the fight against mosquitoes and other insects, and I regret not having learned about it earlier…

All of us who love fishing, hunting or just relaxing in nature are familiar with the problem of protection from insects.

Store-bought repellents are expensive and often prove ineffective.

It seems like money is literally going down the drain, especially when it comes to buying replacement units for fumigators.

However, my discovery changed the situation dramatically. It turns out that in Soviet times there was one wonderful and very budget-friendly remedy that was in every home and helped our parents fight insects.

In the USSR, various colognes were popular, which were considered economical perfumes and were used in a variety of situations: after shaving, as a disinfectant for wounds, as a facial or toothbrush cleaner.

But few people know that some of these colognes were also used as an excellent repellent against mosquitoes, midges and other insects.

The strong and pungent smell of these products repelled insects at a great distance.

One of the most effective was a cologne called “Red Carnation”.

Today it can also be found on sale, but modern analogues often do not correspond to the quality of those times and contain many synthetic additives.

Therefore, I suggest you prepare this time-tested remedy yourself.

The process is simple: put cloves (one package) into a glass jar and add 200-300 ml of vodka.

We insist the mixture in a dark place at room temperature for a week, not forgetting to shake the jar daily.

After this, the infusion needs to be filtered. The resulting concentrate will serve you faithfully until winter.

For ease of use, you can pour the repellent into spray bottles, which makes the process of applying the product even simpler and more convenient.

This is a truly powerful and economical product that will help you forget about insects for the whole year.
