(3) Lavender
I believe everyone should know about lavender. Lavender is a small purple flower, and lavender also gives off a special aroma. Nowadays many friends also use lavender to make sachets, right? Actually, one thing everyone still doesn't know is that lavender also has a characteristic, which is that lavender also has an insect-killing effect. Many people carry a sachet on themselves, so that mosquitoes and insects will not bother us.
(4) Orange jasmine
The leaves of orange jasmine are very beautiful, and the leaf shape is about the same as that of a pea. Also, the origin of the name orange jasmine is precisely because orange jasmine itself gives off an extremely strong fragrance. In ancient times, some literati would tuck a few orange jasmine leaves under their books, which could also prevent the disturbance of mosquitoes and insects. Therefore, using orange jasmine to prevent mosquitoes is also a good choice.
