Spring Hill Florida. I work in my Garage as a mechanic and been getting bit by Mosquitoes like crazy never happened like this before. I tried your mixture and sprayed it all over the place. To my amazement not one bite in the last two days. I can not believe it I'm so glad I ran across your mixture you are a genius. I now work in peace God bless.
I'm glad you're not getting bit. And thank you so much for your blue collar contribution. You guys work your asses off. Where would we be without our blue collar folk? ❤❤❤❤
Tip: Trader Joe’s lavender Hand sanitizer spray worked great with flies. I spray down Outside table at restaurants. No more pesky flies landing on your food. Works very well!💯🚫🪰🚫
Hi from Moorreesburg in the Western Cape of South Africa. We live on a small holding, surrounded by cattle, turkeys, chickens, sheep & goats, so flies are a huge nuisance. All the other expensive sprays help for a while, so will definitely try this. Thank you very much and success in your future ventures.
Thank you! From the U.S. Thanks to folks like you that take the time to share their knowledge, my life has become much simpler, and much less expensive!
Take a paper towel and lay it out flat. Sprinkle ground cinnamon all over it. Don't over do it, just enough to sporadically cover it. A crushed up bay leaf is an added option. Now start from one side and roll it up tight like a cigarette keeping the cinnamon spread out and not clumped up. When it is rolled up....5wist it tighter from end to end. Now use a cast iron skillet or metal pan and light it with fire on one end. If it burns very far on the outer later, smother that fire out. I use a mini torch to start it. It will smolder from one end to the other like a cigarette. If you have a big problem with insects, you can sprinkle a little cayenne in the mix, but please avoid the smoke. Again, this will burn not with flames, but like a cigarette. It burns semi slowly. Insects will vacate the area.
Flies are now becoming the national bird of South Africa due to the incompetence of our local municipalities (in some areas), to clean up our towns. Thanks for this natural remedy.
I used boiling water and added a lot more cinnamon along with a couple shots of gin. Seems to work ok but I can't tell if the flies don't like the smell or simply don't like being sprayed with water. Sprayed a wall outside where they sit and they came back 2 minutes later. So yeah, try just spraying a fine mist of water while shushing them out the door or window first before going through extra efforts.
I could see spraying this on plants or in the waste can, but not on the walls. I already use stick cinnamon and cloves in the apple cider I steam to make the house smell nice. Haven't noticed flies, so perhaps that's why.
@@miss_S Not really a "recipe" but I put one cup of apple cider, two cinnamon sticks, and a tablespoon of cloves in a potpourri steamer (which is kind of like a device for melting scented wax). You could also add grated nutmeg, fresh orange peel, and other spices and just simmer it on the stove. It's just to make the house smell nice, but after watching this I wondered if it was also discouraging flies and mosquitoes.
Natural Mosquito Repellent - no chemical - Good for health. Let me try this. If it worked, it would be marvelous - a gift from God to the human race. Wish a merry Christmas & Happy New Year. From 🇮🇳.
Lots of love and many thanks for making my life simple ,fast and easy with your amazing tricks which I have started implementing in my daily life - from India 🙏🏻
Peppermint oil in water, sprayed works fantastically. You can make it up or by it pre-made. Cayenne pepper also works. Ants travel by scent trails. Find their points of entry into house, and wipe clean the area with white vinegar, then spray peppermint spray. Soon the ants stop entering and do not return.
Yes! I've done it with ain't. I sprayed cinnamon and soap water at the same time. If it was the soap or the cinnamon that worked I don't know but worked out did.
I sprayed all over the garage walls, doors ,floors and even had it somewhat screened in- but there were still mosquitos flying into that area. I think it doesn't work.
DO NOT TRY! I tried it and it attracted way more mosquitoes. Now they are inside of my home biting me and my family all the time. I don't know what to do at this point.
Tried this out and sprayed it on a window where tons of dung flies were gathered. (I have gotten an infestation of them since I have a rabbit indoors) Doesn't work at all unfortunately, unless this only works for certain flies and mosquitoes. In fact they now seem to gather around the droplets left from the spray.
Okay, this is simple enough. But if it just deflects them & doesn't KILL them, then you're just chasing them away from one room in your home, and into another room. Haven't really solved the problem. And does this stain walls? **If this doesn't kill them, then it's better for outdoors.
Sure hopes this works because I been tore up this week late at night in the bed from darn mosquitoes that got into the house ruining my sleep!!! haha lol
Looks interesting but it looks messy and may damage painted walls. Is there a way to maybe just keep this in a container in every room? That way it won't be as messy! :)
Yeah, this reminded me somewhat of a sailor in the Royal Navy, from whom I once bought a car. Afterwards, I noticed that the rear seats were filthy. I should have been more careful with my purchase - his rank and name was Ordinary Seaman Staines.
@@samsun01 she said it looks messy and may damage painted walls... which is a valid point and concern.. Whats that got to do with “wanting everything easy in life”?
Florida here as well! We have them the size of bats here lol they're like stealth ninjas. I can't want to try this. Als, for ADULTS only.. While in the Virgin Islands, the mosquitoes were relentless! Bartender said “ Try this trick of the island locals” a small simple dab of GIN on my neck, legs, and wrists and I didn't see a single one again. We stayed an extra week! I'm not a drinker and it doesn't take much. I was shocked.
I will try it this way, it seems more cleaner than just sprinkling the cinnamon into the plant pots.. even though the cinnamon does keep the insects away. Thanks!
I hope it works on the NoSeeum. My body was riddled with bug bites like I had measles all throughout my entire body. I mean everywhere nonstop biting for 1 and 1/2 months. I tried to look for any and all info on these midge - fungus nats - sand flies, whatever other names they are called. No company could help or advise us on how to solve this horrible issue. I will do this procedure you did on video hope this really helps me. I hope I didn't catch anything from these bugs. If it does work for me I will thank you dearly for the vedio in helping so many other people like me.
Definitely try it ,but has anyone got ideas how to get rid of little spiders ,even though they do kill insects ,every morning from the skylines in the roof, they leave what they don't eat on the floor ,they have bad table manners ☺️
Is this cinnamon spray bad for people's health? I see lots of people asking if it worked, but the people that say they've tried it do not respond... very peculiar...
I'll give this a try. My wife has flowers outside the house and a farm that uses manure as fertilizer, so I think that everyone will agrees that those are surely invitations for the flies and mosquitoes.
People please!!! Stop saying ‘Thank You etc…’ FIRST TRY IT and then give a useful report/comment… For the moment I try to keep cleaning first, and I also use diluted vinegar (sprayer) as an all round cleaner…and the flies don’t like to be sprayed with it 😀 so that’s a start…
Best way to get rid of fruit flies is to get a disposable plastic cup put some wine or beer in it.. a little old fruit (optional) a drop or two of dish soap in the liquid (no surface tension so they drown) put plastic wrap on top with a rubber band make a lot holes (must be big enough for them to go in.. dont worry they wont get back out!) Give it a couple of days more if there are lot and they will be gone works every time
@@ImaginaryShadows2 agree and fast. I was swamped with them this post fall. Now not a one. Neighbor (high rise) is filthy. I'm very clean. Ahh my peace is back

We had a horrible drought in Alabama and when we finally got some rain last week mosquitoes were everywhere - unlike anything I’ve seen!
May need to use as a perfume I use lemon balm and hate the smell and honestly it doesn't work anyways
Because of the colour, I'm a bit concerned about staining on white walls?
As well as it will dry up and have to be applied again.
Same here 😅
Me also
Whos looking under the comments whos actually tried it.. 😁

@@tiogachampion516 & MEEEEEE!😁
I’m just curious what it does attract. 🤣
I tried it and it actually attracted a lot more mosquitoes than I ever imagined. Do not try it.
@@merlinalva 😮 Are you serious?
You can also try cinnamon oil and use it in an aroma/oil diffuser. I'm doing this same as with lavender, which works great (also for flies)
Rosemary essentiall
Oil is another good one
Can u tell me how u use it to get rid of flies
Tip: Trader Joe’s lavender Hand sanitizer spray worked great with flies. I spray down Outside table at restaurants. No more pesky flies landing on your food. Works very well!💯🚫🪰🚫
Flies love cinnamon and spices😂
Do they drink it in their coffee?😂
How long does this remain effective after application?
Until your Momma comes, son.
Just do it and figure it out and then fine tune it yourself.
How often do you need to paint your house to cover the cinnamon stains on your walls?

Oh come on now
Could this mixture be placed in ceramic, over a flame, to infuse the air? Like an essential oil burner, but for mosquito?
Yes they just can't stand the smell of it
Any updates from people who tried this? Did it work or just leave stains? How long if it did? Ty

I did this in the winter time and never saw any flies or mosquitoes! Thanks!
Fleas and mosquitoes don't survive winter! Warm temperature bugs
What if I boiled cinnamon sticks and use the water instead of the powder
Cinnamon powder also helps repel spiders - ants- and bees/hornets/wasps.
How do you do the recipe? please
What a mess that would make. Brown stains everywhere. Think essential oil cinnamon or eucalyptus with vinegar or water would be better.
Plus citronella
I sprayed all over the garage walls, doors ,floors and even had it somewhat screened in- but there were still mosquitos flying into that area. I think it doesn't work.
DO NOT TRY! I tried it and it attracted way more mosquitoes. Now they are inside of my home biting me and my family all the time. I don't know what to do at this point.

That sucks! Spray some ‘Off’ or other bug repellent.
Double check that your cinnamon is not mixed with sugar… just a thought
Maybe try Orange oil
Me neither
It's just a terrible UA-cam idea
