It was during my visit to Mawana town of Meerut district in the Uttar Pradesh state of India . I was to stay there for two months . During my stay there , on the very first night ,I found my bed infested with bed bugs . It was a horrible site to see an army of bed bugs moving in two-three rows . I kept waking up the whole night with electric bulbs switched on and waiting for the dawn . It was a chance during my quest for natural remedies in early twenties of my life, I had read about the use of Carom seeds (Ajwain) in shooing away bed bugs . I asked the room attendant to bring 250 gms (28.35 gms= 1 ounce) of Carom seeds(Ajwain) from a grocery shop and arrange a piece of old cloth. I tied the cloth filled with Carom Seeds (Ajwain) to all the four corners of my bed . To my astonishment , I had sound sleep without a single bite from bed bugs . Many people in the guest house visited the room to see my bed and were shell shocked to see me having full control over BED BUGS . Later , I realized , was it ragging or something else ????? .it remained a mystery . But , I scored a victory over BED BUGS with 250 gms of Carom seeds (Ajwain) . Thanx to the gift of nature ......CAROM SEEDS (Ajwain)!!!!!

ReplyDeleteNo doubt, nature offers us many useful things that we do not even consider worth thinking. Or sometimes while in hurry, many home remedies slip from our mind. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBed bugs are a menace and when encountering them, natural remedies can play a vital role. I haven’t tried carom seed to get rid of these bed bugs but will do it someday.
