A WOMAN has shared the spice trick she uses to repel bugs from her kitchen.

TikTok user Val Taylor (@imvaltaylor) explained: “I’m cleaning out my pantry today and I wanted to show y’all this.”
In her video, the TikToker revealed that she uses bay leaves as a natural bug repellant.
“This is a bay leaf, the same one you’d put in soups and stuff,” she told her followers.
Val can be seen reaching behind the produce on her shelf and lifting out a bay leaf she had placed in the back of her pantry.
