Burning a Clove of Garlic: What Happens After 15 Minutes at Home

You’ve probably used garlic in your cooking, but did you know that burning a clove of garlic releases powerful benefits that go beyond the kitchen? This simple, ancient practice transforms your home environment naturally — and you’ll be amazed by what happens in just 15 minutes!

What Happens When You Burn Garlic:

1. Natural Air Purifier
As garlic burns, it releases sulfur compounds and natural oils that neutralize bacteria, viruses, and airborne toxins. Within 15 minutes, the air feels cleaner, fresher, and more breathable — all without chemicals.

2. Repels Insects
The strong aroma of burning garlic is a natural insect repellent. It helps keep flies, mosquitoes, and other bugs away, making it a great alternative to store-bought sprays.

3. Removes Odors
Whether it’s cooking smells, smoke, or musty air, the distinct compounds in garlic act like an odor eliminator. After 15 minutes, you’ll notice lingering unwanted scents start to disappear.

4. Calms and Relaxes
Garlic contains allicin and sulfur, which not only benefit your health but may also help relieve congestion and ease breathing when inhaled in small amounts — especially helpful during cold seasons.

How to Do It:

  • Peel a large clove of garlic.
  • Light a charcoal disc or use a heat-safe dish.
  • Place the garlic clove on the heat source and let it smolder (not fully flame up).
  • Allow it to burn slowly for about 15 minutes.
  • Open a window slightly for ventilation if needed.

A Simple, Ancient Trick with Big Results

No expensive gadgets, sprays, or chemicals — just a clove of garlic and a bit of heat. Try it next time you want to freshen your home, ward off insects, or clear the air naturally!

One tiny clove, a powerful effect — all in just 15 minutes! 🌿🔥✨

Florida orders residents to evacuate as Hurricane Milton continues to intensify.

A storm surge warning has been reissued for several areas in Florida as Milton intensifies with wind speeds of 161 km/h, continuing to strengthen and becoming a major hurricane by the end of October 7th.

Residents along Florida’s coast have just endured the devastating Hurricane Helene in recent days and now face new evacuation orders as the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC) on October 7th warned that Hurricane Milton is strengthening to Category 3 on the five-tier scale, with the potential to cause severe damage.

The NHC noted that a storm surge warning has been reissued for several areas in Florida as Milton intensifies with wind speeds of 161 km/h, continuing to strengthen and becoming a major hurricane by the end of October 7th.

The hurricane is expected to move north of the Yucatán Peninsula and cross the southern Gulf of Mexico on October 7th-8th. It could potentially make landfall on Florida’s west coast.

The risk of storm surge during Hurricane Milton could reach 0.6 to 1.2 meters above sea level along the northern coast of the Yucatán Peninsula, causing large, destructive waves.

According to the NHC, major hurricanes—Category 3 or higher—have a minimum wind speed of 178 km/h and pose the risk of “catastrophic damage,” even to well-constructed homes. Power and water outages may last for several days or weeks after the storm passes.

Tampa County official Jane Castor stated that the area is still recovering from Hurricane Helene, and the incoming rain from Milton will add more challenges, not to mention storm surges and wind damage.

President Joe Biden emphasized that the federal government is preparing resources for storm response and rescue efforts.

Earlier that day, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis extended the state of emergency to 51 of the state’s 67 counties, warning that Hurricane Milton could have “significant impacts.”

Meanwhile, rescue teams are still racing to find those missing after Hurricane Helene, which hit the U.S. on September 27th, resulting in 225 fatalities across several states.
