Any ideas for natural insect control that you have tried with success? We have pesky bettles that have been hard to get rid of.

Don't forget cedar and pine, most bugs don't usually like those either. You know those cedar chips in the back of your drawers. Hope this helps. I am in bug city here in kansas, i guess ks has lots of bugs. Anyways I had good luck with cinnamon and bay until last week, but it got cold sooooooo, I went through and redid all my stuff and got some ceder too. I think it worked it's only been 2 days.
I HATE BUGS!!!!!

If these are the little Asian beetles, you can put wormwood down and it stops them cold. Last spring they were coming in around my kitchen window and I sprinkled some wormwood and haven't had any since. Cinnamon also works to keep ants away.

I have two things recently that have worked wonders. Cinnamon, the fresher the better but I just bought powder. I sprinkled the powder everywhere! my carpets, the borders of everything. My house looks like there's dirt everywhere hahaha. And bay leaves, I just put one here and there where I thought the bugs would be like behind the toilet. The cinnamon seemed to have worked pretty well. I'm not too sure about the bay leaves but I haven't seen any bugs. Good luck
