To make it, mix 1 tablespoon of mint toothpaste with 1 tablespoon of baking soda. Slowly add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, letting the mixture bubble. Stir in 120 ml of lukewarm water and a few drops of peppermint essential oil if you have it. That’s it—your bug-fighting potion is ready.
Pour the mixture into small containers, like jar lids, and place them around the home—near trash cans, under sinks, or by windows. For best results, refresh every 2–3 days and use a cotton swab to apply it in corners or along baseboards. This safe, non-toxic blend is a simple, affordable way to keep your home pest-free and fresh-smelling.
