This summer, follow Peter’s tips and combine the useful with the pleasant!

Grow insect-repellent plants, such as lavender, rosemary, basil, and citronella in your garden, directly in the soil or in pots. In addition to the aroma they release, you can use them to flavor grilled foods and salads and they will also help keep insects away, thanks to the repellent properties of the essential oils they contain.

Let nature take its course… combine different repellent plants to increase their effectiveness and enjoy your outdoor space to the fullest!
