Mugwort repels mosquitoes. Well, he only repels mosquitoes. But it cannot kill mosquitoes. I have a lot of moxibustion sticks at home. I usually use moxibustion sticks to repel mosquitoes. For example, put some poor quality mugwort on the fire and put it in the corner of the room. Or close the window during moxibustion. The door opens at an angle. The smoke from mugwort will drive mosquitoes out of the room. Then wait until the mosquitoes have flown away before closing the door. Well, I did an experiment to compare. I just use mosquito coils and I feel groggy in the morning when I sleep at night. People don't feel that way when they wake up in the morning. So I use the smoke produced by moxibustion to repel mosquitoes.

Zong Zhuo, a scholar of the Southern Dynasties, recorded in the "Chronology of Jingchu" that on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, "when the rooster does not crow, AI is used as a human form, and moxibustion is very effective.
