The mosquito repellent effect can be doubled if you buy a basin to repel mosquito grass.

In this season, no matter how much we guard against, the bugs will still follow us into the house. Besides, you can't take medicine and order mosquito incense every day, can you? It's so hard to be bitten by it. In short, it's exasperating to think about it. So a kind of plant recommended to you today-mosquito repellent grass, listen to the name should know its function, hurry up to follow the flowers to have a look!

Mosquito repellent is also called geranium, and the reason why it can play a certain role in repelling mosquitoes is because it emits a kind of fragrance that insects resist. But this smell we smell is very cool, there is a light lemon flavor, especially suitable for summer to raise a pot at home, and it is very simple to raise.

When we buy mosquito repellent, we should pay attention to carefully observe its leaves, do not ignore the yellowing leaves inside, because if we buy it back, it will take time to trim it. It is suggested to change the basin first after buying it, and by the way, you can check its root growth!

Before changing the basin, do not water first, so that you can successfully complete the removal of the basin, but also can well protect its roots. First of all, we have to take it out of the basin, and then repair it, and judge whether or not to replace it according to the situation of the original soil. If we change it, we need to clean the soil by hand, because this can well control the strength, so as to avoid damaging the root system of the plant.

After the treatment, we can plant it into the pot, first fill a layer of soil at the bottom of the flowerpot, then put in the mosquito repellent, and continue to fill the soil. Remember to straighten the plant when filling the soil, or it will cause it to grow askew. After filling, gently compact the soil with your hands, because the new soil is too fluffy, as soon as it is watered, it will collapse directly, but don't press it too tightly, otherwise it will be bad if the root can't breathe!

By the way, we can also check to see if there are any problems such as yellow leaves, and if we find that it has yellow leaves and overgrowth, just cut it off, because keeping it is also a waste of nutrition, so, for the shape and growth of the whole plant, we have to be ruthless!

After all has been dealt with, the final step is to water it thoroughly. We'd better pick up the water and put it on the balcony two days in advance, because now that the weather is heating up, directly watering it with cold water will damage its roots.

After changing the basin of mosquito repellent grass, we have to put it in a sunny place, let it slowly adapt to the new environment and then restore growth, light is very important for it, although its leaves are green, but it is not afraid of the sun, but the light is not enough, it will make it grow more and more lethargic.

So we can put it on the south balcony at any other time except in summer, but because the sun is too strong now, we have to change its position temporarily and put it in a bright and ventilated place without all shade!

There is to put it in the window, now this muggy weather is not well ventilated, it is fatal to any plant! In addition, when we put it on the windowsill, we can drive away certain mosquitoes, and its fragrance can float all over the house with the wind.

If you water it, you don't have to water it too often, because it is resistant to drought, otherwise it will cause waterlogging. Usually we can spray water on its leaves with a spray can, so that not only the mosquito repellent effect will be increased, but we will also smell cooler!
