If you want to stay away from mosquitoes, you can plant marigold direct into the soil or in a pot outside your window. You may also choose the entrance of your home to plant these mighty marigolds. Why? Because they carry pyrethrum- a compound that used in many repellents and sometimes referred to as \u201cnature\u2019s insecticide.\u201d Here in India, marigolds grow all through the year. Apart from mosquitoes, marigolds also help in keeping other insects and bugs away like whiteflies, squash bugs, aphids, thrips, etc. It is said to plant a marigold beside your tomato plant to keep the bugs away. Just provide full-sun and well-drained soil and see how helpful marigolds are to you.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Basil Plant:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-11397 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Basil.jpg\" alt=\"Basil Plant\" width=\"542\" height=\"308\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Basil.jpg 846w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Basil-300x170.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Basil-768x436.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.fnp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Basil-810x460.jpg 810w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 542px) 100vw, 542px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Our ancestors were truly intelligent without Google!
