Did you know that plants can be real lifesavers?

Summer is only a couple of months away, and you’re eagerly waiting for it, right? But do you know who else loves summer? Those annoying little bugs that are so happy to spread their wings and fly towards your home and intrude on your private oasis. Ugh!

Even better, all these ten plants are easily accessible. Grow your plants from seeds or purchase young plants from a plant nursery.
