A true botanical marvel: mint is easy to plant and maintain. This plant is not only excellent in the kitchen, but also brings numerous benefits to our health.
To grow mint you need a plant, which can be purchased in specialized stores. It is very easy to grow and can be spread throughout the garden or balcony.
Attracts good insects : Mint keeps the garden or porch full of “beneficial” insects. Mint nectar and pollen help maintain easy access to beneficial insects such as bees and hoverflies.
Natural repellent : Although it attracts “good bugs”, mint keeps away “bad” ones, such as ants and mosquitoes. Mix water with peppermint essential oil and spray the solution near doors and windows.
Flea control : Prepare a bouquet consisting of 2 sprigs of fresh mint, 1 sprig of fresh thyme and 1 sprig of mugwort and place it under the pillow or blanket your pet uses to nap.
