Is there a plant that will keep mosquitoes away?

Answer 1

Catmint,Marigolds,Rosemary and hybrid citronella plants. If you have a koi pond or another large amount of standing water near your house I highly recommend that you introduce mosquitoe fish, because their diet consists mainly of mosquitoe larvae.

Answer 2

Geraniums, Lemon Blam, and Citronella are all mosquito repellent plants. I know if you grill fresh rosemary on the grill, they will stay far far away. There is a spectacular insect repellent called "buzz away" It only has plant oils in it, that naturally repel mosquitoes. I use it for my toddler, because is has no chemicals in it. It honestly works better than any harsh insect repellent I've ever used. This year in Wisconsin, the bugs are horrible, so I wear it pretty much all day long. I assume that it is only carried at natural food stores, and online, at least those are the only places I've ever seen it.

Answer 3

Any carnivorous plant can kill a mosquito, but not necessarily will.

Some of these carnivorous plants include Venus Fly Traps, the Pitcher Plant, Cape Sundew plants, the Common Bladderwort, and more!
