| Kuching | Looking for a local plant in Pasar Satok Posted: Mon July 24, 2006 09:40 AM UTC
Hi,
I need some help from people who are familiar with Pasar Satok in Kuching. I'm looking for a type of plant there. I can't remember the local name, but it's usually used as mosquito repellant because of the plant's aroma. I heard it cost about RM1. Does anyone know what plant is it? |

I am very curios what they sell for plant in Pasar Satok.
May be it is this one: In Europa they sell "Eucalyptus gunnii". The smell of this plants don't like the muskito. On the other end I see a TV doc (Finnisch) where they proof it (country side) that the only middle what is helping to prevent you from muskito's is DEET all other creme's or things are absolute not working, even not a bit.
