How do I use ground-floor mosquito magnet in a diffuser?

Add Citronella 4 · Tea Tree 2 · Eucalyptus 1 drops to 200–300 ml of water. In a room under 15 m², use 1–2 drops less; in a room over 25 m², add 1 more drop of the main oil.

What can I use instead of citronella?

Swap citronella for rosemary or clary sage — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.

When is the best time to use ground-floor mosquito magnet?

Diffuse it on the balcony, porch or in the bedroom in the evening; keep the window screens shut for best results.

Ground-floor mosquito magnet · Citronella, Tea Tree, Eucalyptus blend

The ground floor is cool but damp, and mosquitoes and drain smells love to visit. Citronella leads bold and grassy, tea tree adds a green-clean note, and eucalyptus makes the air feel more open. Good for rentals and shady first-floor rooms. Run the diffuser after mopping in the afternoon, placed near the door; for rooms under 12 m², half the recipe is just right.

How it unfolds

On opening. Citronella (strong, green and slightly lemony); tea tree (green, medicinal and clean); eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.
