Plant A Mosquito Control Container So You Can Sit And Unwind In The Evenings Without Dousing In DEET

With the sun able to shine again, now is the time when you might want to enjoy the lighter evenings. The problem with enjoying evenings outside is that mosquitoes have the same idea. However, anyone with a basic green thumb can easily avoid a plague of blood-suckers with a mosquito control planter.

To make your planter, all you’ll need is a 70 cm diameter pot and several plants. Start with placing a single citronella geranium at 12 o’clock, a pair of marigold “Lemon Gems” at 1 and 11 o’clock, a pair of Catnip at 2 and 10 o’clock, six lemon thyme around the perimeter of the catnip, and a trio of both lemon grass and “Artist Purple” around the center.
