Mosquito Repellant Plants
Nuisance insects can often be a nuisance, especially when they come in large numbers, but mosquito repellant plants can help with that problem. Especially after all the work and care you might put into your garden or yard, it can be very discouraging not to be able to enjoy all the effort you put in.

They are a great way to get rid of some of the insects without the need for chemicals or other costly methods. Since they also continuously repel insects, you can enjoy your yard or garden all year long.
There are many types of flowers that keep them away. By including a variety of these in different areas of your yard or garden, you can achieve the most benefit at repelling these nuisance insects.
Some Mosquito Repellant Plants Include Trees
Many trees emit a scent that is very pleasing to humans but avoided by nuisance insects. Certain species of cedars and oaks emit such a fragrance year-round. With careful planning of where they are placed, they can provide years of insect control, as well as shade for your flowers and a safe shelter for many animals, such as squirrels and birds. Many Viburnum species also emit a calming fragrance and can help fill in larger open areas in your garden.
One of the most overlooked and misunderstood nuisance insects is moss. Although many people associate moss with more nuisance insects, they are actually one of the best at repelling them. In general, mosses require areas with lots of water to thrive. By absorbing a lot of the surrounding water, they can reduce the likelihood of pooling water that would otherwise become the perfect breeding area for insects.
Mosquito Repellant Plants Are Good For Your Outdoor Space
The various types of mosquito repellant plants mean you can add this benefit to nearly anywhere in your garden. By carefully selecting a wide variety of types and spacing them around your garden, you can reduce the number of insects naturally so you can enjoy the scenery and fragrance of all the Flowers in your garden.
