The process couldn’t be simpler. Start with an empty Raid bottle or any similar empty insecticide spray bottle you have. Make sure it’s clean and dry, then take a handful of whole cloves and place them inside the bottle. The number of cloves doesn’t need to be exact, but a good rule of thumb is to fill at least a quarter of the bottle to ensure the aroma is potent enough to deter the mosquitoes.
Next, if the bottle allows for it, fill it with water. This step is optional but can help to diffuse the scent of the cloves more effectively throughout your space. Once filled, place the bottle or bottles in areas where mosquitoes are most troublesome, such as near windows, doors, or in outdoor sitting areas.

There’s also the added advantage of its pleasant smell, a stark contrast to the often harsh chemical odors of traditional insecticides. Moreover, this method is cost-effective and sustainable, utilizing natural resources that can be easily replenished.
