Step 3 of Ezoic: Spray for Multiple Insect Repellency
Make a spray with some white vinegar, vegetable oil, and shampoo for a more multipurpose insect repellent that gets rid of flies, cockroaches, and mosquitoes.
What to do:
Combine half a cup of shampoo, half a cup of vegetable oil, and half a cup of white vinegar in a basin or container.
To ensure that all components are well mixed, stir the mixture.

Fill a new spray bottle with the solution.
Use this spray at entry points, such as windows, doors, and kitchen corners, where pests often congregate.
The vinegar serves as an all-natural insect repellent, the vegetable oil forms a barrier that bugs hate to cross, and the shampoo helps the combination stick to surfaces. This makes this spray very effective.

Extra advice to stay bug-free
While these approaches do a good job of keeping insects away, you still need to do what you can to keep them from coming back.
Always keep your house tidy: This is particularly true in the kitchen, where crumbs and other food remnants may quickly accumulate. You should clean surfaces quickly and not keep food out in the open since flies and cockroaches are drawn to food and standing water.
Get rid of any water that collects in plant saucers, gutters, or any other outdoor containers; standing water is a breeding ground for mosquitoes.

Make sure there are no holes or crevices that bugs may squeeze into your home by closing all doors and windows. In the warmer months, mosquito nets are an absolute must for keeping pesky insects at bay.
