Eucalyptus Oil and Tea Tree Oil
Spray a few drops of tea tree oil in a glass of water and spray it around the house and in the garden. Pests despise the smell of eucalyptus oil so much that their numbers will be drastically reduced if you do this on a regular basis. A cotton ball soaked in eucalyptus oil can also be used to clean cupboard doors and window panes.
 
Lemon
Pests are repelled by the citrus scent of fruits such as ...
... oranges and lemons. In a glass of water, combine lemon juice, orange essential oils, and liquid soap to make a spray. Say hello to freshness by spraying this natural pest repellent all over the house.
 
Cinnamon
It is another way through which you can control pests in Sutherland Shire. All you should do is take a few sticks of cinnamon and grind it well.  Now, sprinkle the powder on the affected area and leave it for almost five to six hours. You can also make cinnamon oil just by adding a few drops of essential oil and it will work amazingly on pests and bugs. By taking a cotton ball and dipping it into the oil you can also wipe the affected area for better results.
 
Flowers
You can keep flowers such as marigolds and rosemary to get rid of bugs and pests permanently. On the other hand, citronella grass is another way of pest control in Sutherland Shire. This will keep mosquitoes away from your place.
 
Garlic
If you don't mind the garlic smell, get a few fresh cloves, peel them, and place them on book racks to deter pests. When they dry, make sure to replace them with new ones. You can even add garlic powder. It's a natural roach and ant repellent.
