Description

In Ayurveda, the roots of the aparajita plant are known for balancing all three doshas, namely vata, pitta, and kapha. These roots are powdered and mixed with other medicinal herbs for making the dhoopa churna (fumigation granules). The other medicinal herbs that are added are neem leaves which are anti-bacterial, guggulu which are strengthening and purifying, dhyamaka which prevents fever, devadaru which supports respiratory health, vacha which clears the obstructions in the breathing channels, sarja which helps treat skin issues, and agarwood which is deeply healing in various ways.

While these herbs are pleasant and medicinal for us, mosquitoes absolutely hate their pungent compounds. It’s like hosting a party where the mosquitoes aren’t invited, the medicated aroma in the air keeps them away.

And here’s the bonus – while the fumigation keeps the mosquitoes away, the medicinal smoke also supports your immunity, clears the air, and helps your body cope better with monsoon-related illnesses such as fever, coughs, congested nostrils, and cold.
