Onions are a staple in many kitchens around the world.
They add flavor to dishes and are rich in vitamins and minerals.
However, onions can also be used for something else entirely, getting rid of pests.
This may come as a surprise, but onions have natural insecticidal properties that make them an effective pest control solution.
Onions contain a compound called allicin.
When insects come into contact with this compound, it can damage their cell membranes and interfere with their respiratory systems.
This makes onions a natural and safe alternative to chemical pesticides.
Onions can be used to repel a variety of pests.
Here are the best ways to get rid of pests using onions.
