Wanting to see more results, I turned the idea into a simple routine. I rinsed a few leaves, dried them, and gently crushed them to release their fragrance. Sometimes I placed small dishes of basil around the kitchen or near entry points. Other times I kept the plant near a sunny window, letting the scent spread naturally.
I also experimented with pairing basil leaves with items like lemon peel or cloves. These combinations added freshness to the air and made the kitchen feel brighter. While none of these changes produced dramatic effects overnight, they noticeably reduced unwanted insects and made the space more pleasant.
What surprised me most was how soothing the process became. Caring for the plant—watering it, trimming it, and watching it grow—added a moment of calm to my day. It felt good to use something natural instead of relying on strong fragrances or chemicals.
