Citronella grass vs Dengue mosquito

Live healthy and long


 One of the antidote for dengue is to repel mosquito by planting citronella grass in your yard.  This is mosquito repellent.  Citronella oil is a major ingredient of Bug Spray, a product of Human Nature.  It is natural and does not have the toxicity of another synthetic chemical insect repellent.

This is also known as Nar or Nardus mosquito plant.

It is a close relative of the Lemon grass and may be mistaken for another.  Its scientific name is Cimbopogon nardus (lemon grass is also Cimbogon but stratus)
