Rosemary Plant for Mosquito-Free Home: Mosquitoes cause a lot of trouble in every season. Mosquitoes spread many diseases like dengue, malaria and chikungunya. To avoid these, most people resort to coil, liquid, spray or chemical repellents. All these products sometimes prove to be harmful for our health. However, some natural methods can also be useful to avoid mosquitoes. You will be surprised to know that there is a plant which if you plant in the house, its fragrance will prevent mosquitoes from coming inside the house and will run away. This is Rosemary Plant, which can keep the house free from mosquitoes without any side effects.
Many researches show that powerful natural compounds like camphor, cineole, alpha-pinene and rosmarinic acid are found in rosemary leaves. These elements spread in the air and confuse the smelling ability of mosquitoes. Actually, mosquitoes detect the smell of humans and bite, but the smell of rosemary disturbs their senses. Because of this, mosquitoes do not fly around the plants, not even near the door of the house. This plant becomes the natural security guard of your home.
Rosemary plant is not difficult to grow, rather it flourishes easily even with less care. It only needs light sunlight and some water. You can easily plant it in the balcony, window, veranda or small garden of your house. This plant grows well in sunlight and is harmed by excess water, so there is no need to work too hard. Once it starts growing, it itself becomes dense and fragrant.
The natural oil extracted from rosemary leaves purifies the air and reduces bad odor and germs present in it. This means you are not only mosquito-free, but also breathe clean and fresh air. Its aroma makes the atmosphere of the house relaxing and gives a light aroma therapy like experience.
The scent of rosemary also helps in calming the mind and reducing stress. One feels less tired throughout the day and the mood remains better. The best thing is that this plant does not release any kind of chemical, hence it is completely safe for children, elderly and pets. If you want to protect yourself from mosquitoes in a natural way and want a pure, fragrant environment in your home, then the rosemary plant is a perfect option for you.
