Hi Friends
Hope you will be fine...
Since last few days I have been doing research on mosquito repelling plants. And finally arrived at two most effective plants to repel mosquitoes...
1. Cymbopogon Nardus (Citronella Grass)
2. Nepeta Cataria (Catnip)
The first one is quite effective in doing this but it is not very pleasant and attractive. It requires large pot to grow effectively.
Catnip is the 2nd most effective and can even grow in small pots. This can even be placed indoors once it is mature. But this plant attract cats and you know well that cats destroy plants.

The citronella grass can look good its related to lemon grass. Just have to be careful as citronella grass can be invasive and cattle dont eat it.
Could be good used with lemon grass ...one grass for keeping the insects away and one for use in cooking.
