Using Vicks VapoRub for Pest Control

Using Vicks VapoRub for Different Pests

1. Mosquitoes and Gnats

  • Dab small amounts of Vicks VapoRub on your skin, especially on exposed areas like arms, legs, and neck to keep mosquitoes and gnats at bay.
  • Place open containers of Vicks in outdoor spaces to deter flying pests.

2. Ants

    • Create barriers by spreading a thin line of Vicks along windowsills, doorways, or entry points to confuse ants and disrupt their trail.
    • Apply Vicks near ant hills or on their path to deter their movements.

3. Flies

  • Use Vicks on windows, door frames, or garbage lids to discourage flies from congregating.
  • Keep an open jar of Vicks in the kitchen or near fruit bowls to repel fruit flies.
