INSECT REPELLENTS

Bay leaves, cloves and sage all act as natural insect repellents for ants and other crawling insects.

Chives are also a natural insect repellent.

Fenugreek leaves are dried and used as an insect repellent in grain storage in some parts of the world.

Rosemary oil is sometimes used externally as an insect repellent.
