Mosquitoes Ruined Our Summer Nights — Until My Grandmother’s Clove Trick Saved Us

That night, I lit the clove dish and waited.

Within minutes, the air smelled like my grandmother’s kitchen.
Then something weird happened:
No mosquitoes.

Five minutes later, my husband stepped outside, paused, looked around, and whispered:
“Where did they all go?”

We sat. We laughed.
We stayed outside for hours.
No bites. No buzzing. Just peace.
