ORANGE SKIN FOR MOSQUITO REPELLENT

Disturbed by mosquitoes but still want to explore Indonesian nature? Being afraid of infected by Malaria and the like but still curious to know more about Indonesian jungle? It is understandable that many people get addicted in exploring Indonesia nature but always worry about some bad possibilities.

As Malaria cases are rarely found now in this tropical country, more people come to Indonesia. Beside that, since mosquito repellent has been massively produced in the various forms such as lotion and liquid, many people can rely on that kind of chemical blend to stay away from the probability of bitten by mosquitoes in Indonesia.

Nevertheless, not all people like to put chemical blend for their skin. For this reason, you do not have to worry since we can use natural one offered also by Indonesian nature, namely orange skin. It is sometimes like a joke that the skin of this sweet fruit, which is usually ignored, can be used for mosquito repellent.  But it is worth to try.

For simple method, just take a fresh orange, peel the skin, and swab it to all part of your trunks or any open part of your body. Since mosquitoes does not like a sharp smell produced by orange skin, they will stay away from you. You can also cut the skin into pieces and spread it all over your sleeping area. But do not forget to eat the fruit since we do not advise to throw the fruit away. Cheers.
