Vicks VapoRub is a mentholated ointment used for cold and cough relief, not for killing or eliminating pests.

🧴 Does it actually work for pests?

Some people claim the strong smell “repels insects,” but:

• There is no strong scientific evidence it works against:
  • Mosquitoes
  • Ants
  • Cockroaches
  • Flies
  • Spiders
  • Rodents

At best, strong odors may temporarily disturb some insects—but they do not solve infestations.
