Naturally made insectide for your convenience

I was out shopping for gardening soil and planting pot when i came across an effective and safe insectide called Hot shot that will repel and kill those nasty bugs hiding in your cupboard waiting for the lights to go out just to crawl all over your kitchen utensils and left overs.




Hot shot Natural Ant and Roach Killer containing lemongrass oil, water, Isopropyl Alcohol, carbon dioxide, Mineral oil, sodium Benzoate, polyglycerol Oleate, Wintergreen oil is a natural insectide made to kill ants, American and German Cockroaches, centipedes, Crickets, earwigs, millipedes, pillbugs, scorpions, spiders (posionous and non posionous, including black widows), ticks, silverfish, firebrats, waterbugs and fleas.
You spray into hiding places such as cracks, crevices, openings around sinks, drains and pipes, around appliances, along baseboard and behind cabinets. Spray until wet and watch those bugs invading your home. Cost aproximately, $3.97 at Lowe's




EcoSmart organic insectide is another useful Ant and Roach killer. It is safe to use in the home, Nontoxic, effective, convenient because it is naturally made using nontoxic ingredients like peppermint oil, Rosemary oil, water, 2-propanol, Wintergreen oil, white mineral oil, polyglyeryl Oleate, Sodium Bensoate, Nitrogen. There will be
no need to remove your pet or children from your home when using this however i would avoid spraying this too close to your pet and kids. EcoSmart Organic insectide promises to repel and kill crawling insects like cockroaches, pill bugs, silverfish, spiders etc. Cost approximately, $5.00 at Lowe's Store

These two products i have tried are effective and does have mild herbal scent of lemongrass oil..........smells okay. You can find these two products at Lowe's Local store.




But before you use this insectide make sure your home is clean free of stinky stagnant water and left overs.........Read other articles about Nontoxic pest control. And please don't go killing every insectide (bug) that is naturally outdoor---only those found in your cupboard, cabinets and in your home needs to be exterminated. Do not use any of these products directly on your kids hair or pet's fur.....it is only a home insectide & flea repellent.

Get rid of Bad Breath

What causes Bad Breath?
Bad breath is medically called Halitosis, it can result from poor mouth—dental hygiene, smoking or chewing tobacco, can be caused by underlying yeast infection, tooth decay, plague build up, colon, liver, kidney or sinus, diabetes, bronchitis, chronic acid reflux problems, food with strong odor such as garlic, onions, ginger can cause bad breath though they help prevent bacteria growth.
If you don't brush and floss your teeth daily, food particles can remain in your mouth, which promotes odor-causing bacterial growth between teeth, around the gums, and on the tongue. This causes bad breath.
Persistent bad breath or a bad taste in your mouth may be warning signs of gum (periodontal) disease. Gum disease is caused by the buildup of plaque on teeth. This can cause damage to your gum and jaw bone if it is left untreated. When your mouth is dry, your mouth smells bad so I recommend drinking more filtered water to help moisten the mouth and promote saliva. Saliva is necessary to moisten and cleanse the mouth by neutralizing acids produced by plaque, it washes away dead cells that accumulate on the tongue, gums, and cheeks, so to keep the mouth fresh you can brush or have a minty gum.

Natural home recipe for Stinky Mouth:
Sea salt soaked in a glass of water, 2 spoons of sea salt to half cup of water, make sure the water is salty, add aloe Vera Juice or lemon juice. Use this to rinse your mouth, do not over do this because lemon juice can be damaging to tooth enamel.

Also you use pepper mint oil or cinnamon oil to gaggle and rinse your mouth instead of the one above.

Sea salt has antibacterial properties and I find that it helps whiten the teeth as well; so let’s say you just had curry or turmeric meal which has your teeth discolored, you can brush away using sea salt water and lemons.

Mint oil has antiseptic properties useful for dental care. It is useful for treating toothaches, and it is effective in getting rid of mouth germs and bad breath.

Cinnamon oil has antiseptic, anti-microbial, antispasmodic, anti-inflammatory, astringent properties. Gets rid of bad breath and freshens the mouth.

Fennel seed tea is also good for freshening the breath.

Other things you can do to prevent Bad breath.
  • Brush your teeth and tongue every morning and every night before you go to bed, using fluoride-free toothpaste—something natural.
  • Keep minty chewing gum in your purse to help you freshen up when you notice bad breath.
  • You can carry a small bottle of 100% peppermint oil or cinnamon oil in your purse so that if you’re out for lunch you can freshen up after eating strong odor food.
  • Change your brush every 3 to 6 months.
  • See your dentist if the bad breath is persistent and embracing.

Xyliwhite Toothpaste Gel, Cinnafresh: This is the best toothpaste for sensitive teeth, it freshens and leaves your mouth smelling like cinnamon.
