🕯️ DIY Cinnamon-Clove Candle: The Trick That Saves You Money & Keeps Insects Away!

February 9, 2025 by BMA24


Tired of spending money on expensive scented candles and insect repellents? This simple yet powerful homemade trick will fill your home with a warm, inviting aroma while keeping pesky flies and mosquitoes at bay. ✨


🛒 What You’ll Need:

✔️ 3 candles (any type)
✔️ 1 tsp ground cinnamon
✔️ A handful of cloves
✔️ A container (non-plastic)
✔️ A pot for melting wax
✔️ A wick (from a leftover candle)


🔥 Step-by-Step Guide

1️⃣ Melt the Wax

  • Place three candles into a pot on low heat until fully melted.
  • TIP: Save one of the wicks for later.

2️⃣ Add the Magic Ingredients

  • Pour the melted wax into a heat-safe container.
  • Add a handful of cloves—there’s no exact amount, just add to taste.
  • Stir in 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon for an extra aromatic boost.
  • Mix everything well.

3️⃣ Insert the Wick

  • Take the saved wick and secure it in the center of the wax.
  • Hold it in place with a small object until the wax starts to harden.

4️⃣ Let It Set

  • Allow the candle to fully cool and harden.
  • Trim the wick to the desired length.

5️⃣ Light and Enjoy!

  • Light the candle and instantly fill your home with the warm scent of cinnamon.
  • Watch as flies, mosquitoes, and other pesky insects disappear thanks to the natural repellent properties of cloves!

🌿 Why This Works:

🔹 Cinnamon: Its warm, spicy scent enhances relaxation and eliminates bad odors.
🔹 Cloves: Contain eugenol, a natural insect repellent that keeps flies and mosquitoes away.
🔹 Wax Base: Extends the burn time, making it long-lasting and effective.


💡 Bonus Tip: Make several small candles and place them around your home for maximum fragrance and protection. Perfect for living rooms, patios, and even bedrooms!

🔥 No more spending money on overpriced candles or ineffective bug sprays! Try this trick today and experience the difference.
