How is this solution used?
Cloves have natural repellent properties that can keep silverfish away. Silverfish cannot stand the smell of cloves and will tend to avoid areas treated with the repellent solution.
It is important to note that the repellent solution may require a few repeat applications to maintain its effectiveness over time. Over time, clove essential oils may evaporate or become diluted, reducing the repellent effect. It is therefore recommended to refresh the solution every two to three weeks, or as needed, to ensure that it is still effective.
This DIY vodka and clove repellent works as a preventative measure. This is not a solution for an existing silverfish infestation. For more serious problems, you may need to consult a professional pest control expert. Experts also recommend adding lemon to strengthen the formula.
