    "I have a confession to make. I’m a Swiffer-a-holic. I love to Swiffer. As good as it works, it still doesn’t always get up ALL of the dirt and dust. Why not make an all-natural cleaning product that has dual purpose to both clean and help repel insects? Essential oils to the rescue! Here’s the super simple DIY that takes minutes to make and makes your Swiffer work twice as hard. Helping to keep the creepy crawlies at bay is a bonus!"

    More Recycled Crafts You'll Love

    As seasoned craft enthusiasts, we understand the satisfaction that comes from creating your own DIY insect repeller/cleaner. For those who enjoy this craft project, we have a few recommendations to keep your creativity flowing.

    If you're a fan of natural products and essential oils, why not try making your own insect repelling candles? Simply mix your favorite essential oils like citronella, lavender, or eucalyptus with soy wax and pour them into jars or molds. Not only will you repel insects, but you'll also have a beautifully scented candle to enjoy.

    For those who prefer a more hands-on approach, we suggest crafting handmade insect repelling sachets. Fill small fabric pouches with dried herbs like mint, rosemary, or lemongrass, and hang them in your closets or drawers. Not only will these sachets keep insects at bay, but they'll also add a fresh scent to your belongings.

    If you're looking to take your DIY insect repeller/cleaner to the next level, consider making your own natural cleaning spray. Mix equal parts water and white vinegar, then add a few drops of essential oils with insect repelling properties. This multipurpose spray can be used to clean surfaces while keeping pests away.

    No matter your crafting skill level or the season, there's always a new insect-repelling project waiting to be discovered. Get creative, experiment with different ingredients, and enjoy the process of crafting your own natural solutions. Happy crafting!

    I have to try this! I love being outside in the warm weather, but I don't like the bugs. I will need to give this project a try.
