Creating this trap is surprisingly simple and requires just a few basic ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon
Water
Sugar
Dish soap
Prepare the Solution: In a bowl, mix water with a generous amount of sugar to create a sweet solution that will attract flies and mosquitoes. The exact amounts can be adjusted, but you want the water to be sweet enough to lure the pests effectively.
Add Cinnamon: Stir in 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon. The cinnamon acts as a repellent, confusing the pests and making the trap even more effective.
Add Dish Soap: A few drops of dish soap should be added to the mixture. This breaks the surface tension of the liquid, ensuring that once the flies or mosquitoes are attracted to the solution, they will be trapped.
