Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.

Since fleas reproduce so quickly, the mere presence of one flea could mean you have an infestation on your hands. Hundreds and even thousands of fleas can lurk in your pet’s fur, carpet, furniture, and even your body. If you see fleas jumping on household items or notice your pet scratching more than usual, those are signs of infestation.

While vinegar doesn’t get rid of spider webs that already exist, spraying a mixture of vinegar and water in areas where you’ve found webs before will deter spiders from rebuilding there. The acetic acid within vinegar can harm and kill spiders, so they’ll want to stay as far away from this strong-smelling substance as they can get.
