The Power of Shampoo
1. Shampoo, specifically the surfactants in it, reduces the surface tension of the vinegar solution, making it easier for bugs to drown.

2. Stir the mixture well until all components are fully integrated.
3. Pour the mixture into a spray bottle for easy application.
Application Tips
1. Spray the mixture in areas where you notice high insect activity, such as near trash bins and countertops.
2. Reapply the mixture every few days or after cleaning to maintain its effectiveness.
