Russians were told about the protection of the interior and body of the car from insects

After the rains and the dramatic warming, the mosquito population is expected to increase in several regions of the country. On July 19, the press service of the SberAuto service told Izvestia how to protect the car from insects.

To keep the cabin clean, it is important to check the condition of the filter — the old cleaner may allow insects to pass through the ventilation system. It is also recommended to avoid bright odors that can attract mosquitoes, and use natural repellents, such as stickers based on essential oils.

In addition, regular wet cleaning and airing of the interior will help get rid of crumbs and odors that attract insects.

"Polishes and waxes with a water-repellent effect not only add shine, but also create a film on the surface of the car, to which insects stick worse. Thanks to this, it is much easier to wash the body after the trip," the press service said.

SberAuto also recommended monitoring the condition of the wipers and using a high-quality washer to ensure good visibility on the road.
