In summer, when mosquitoes are everywhere, one pot of mosquito-repellent plant makes them disappear instantly

What are you most afraid of in summer?

A power outage in the middle of the night? The watermelon vendor going on strike? The ice cream lady running off? Or the sun's enthusiastic greeting?

None of these scare me, because,

a calm mind brings its own coolness!

In summer, the scariest thing is when you are sleeping soundly in the middle of the night and a mosquito suddenly greets you. You really cannot drive it away no matter how hard you try.Whether you sleep or not, the mosquito is right there, noisy and troublesome。

The most infuriating thing is the mosquito's passionate kiss. One bite, and it leaves a mark of love. A bite on the thigh or hand is manageable, but if it bites your neck, that is awkward. Cover it or not, either way is uncomfortable, and you can only sing a song of despair.

Skin that has had close contact with a mosquitowill develop redness, swelling, itching, allergies and other reactions, and in severe cases can even cause viral colds。

Mosquitoes are also the number one public enemy threatening human health, as declared by the World Health Organization.

Mosquitoes carry various infectious disease pathogens and spread diseases by biting humans and animals. In severe cases, yellow fever and other diseases can occur. Once infected, symptoms such as high fever and headache appear. There was once an online report about a little boy who, after being bitten by mosquitoes, was infected with Japanese encephalitis and became paralyzed.

So the first task in summer is--mosquito repellence。

When it comes to mosquito repellence, folk remedies abound.

Young people are fond of mosquito repellent spray. Before bed, give it a spray.

Those in a midlife crisis defend traditional techniques to the death, burning Lanju mosquito coils all night.

But mosquito repellent spray has a limited effective time; once it evaporates, it is of little use. And burning mosquito coils for too long is also harmful to the human body.

So, is there still a natural, harmless way to repel mosquitoes?

Today,PlantWordwe bring you a plant that is both beautiful and able to repel mosquitoes--the mosquito-repellent plant。

The mosquito-repellent plant on the market mainly refers to genetically modifiedscented geranium. The mosquito-repellent plant combines the fragrance substances ofgeranium plantsand plants containingcitronellal. Under normal conditions, this plant, throughphotosynthesis, releases its own scent molecules into the air. And citronellal itself has an outstanding mosquito- and insect-repelling effect.

Within its survival temperature range (l-40°C),the higher the temperature, the more scent molecules it releases. In summer, when mosquitoes breed in large numbers and temperatures are at their highest, the concentration of scent molecules released by the mosquito-repellent plant is also at its peak. The scent it gives off is a fresh, light lemon fragrance.

Most mosquito repellent products work because of this substance. The fusion of the above two natural plant fragrances contains no chemical ingredients. While purifying the air, its eco-friendly characteristics are very prominent.

Compared with ordinary mosquito repellent products, the mosquito-repellent plant is a completely natural product, truly achieving biological natural mosquito repellence without spraying or smoking, and there is no conclusive proof that the fragrance it releases is harmful to human health. At the same time, in the hot summer, its fresh scent can also purify the environment.
