• 1 large red onion
  • 1 cup of white distilled vinegar
  • 1 bucket of warm water
  1. Grate: Use a fine grater to turn the red onion into a very wet and purple-looking pulp.
  2. Squeeze: Press the pulp through a sieve to collect the fresh onion juice in a bowl.
  3. Mix: Add the white distilled vinegar to the onion juice and stir for 2 minutes.
  4. Pour: Empty the onion and vinegar mixture into your bucket of warm water.
  5. Mop: Use a clean mop to wash your floors, focusing on the dark corners and under the appliances.
  6. Scrub: Use a cloth dipped in the juice to wipe down the baseboards to ensure the pests cannot hide.
  7. Dry: Let the floor air dry to let the sulfur scent stay in the cracks of the floor.
  8. Repeat: Do this every three days for one week to see the change in your home.
  9. Result: Your floors will look very shiny and your home will be very quiet.

Three Simple Tips

  • Use Red Onions Only: Use the red variety instead of white onions to get the best results for the highest amount of repelling sulfur.
  • Focus on Cracks: Always mop deep into the wall edges to see the best results for keeping the pests in a very fast-moving-looking retreat.
  • White Vinegar is Best: Use clear distilled vinegar to make your floors stay in a very streak-free and sanitized-looking state.
