VapoPulver: Die moderne Alternative zum Hausmittel Kaffeepulver gegen Wespen, Mücken und Schnaken

VapoPulver: The modern alternative to the home remedy coffee powder against wasps, mosquitoes and gnats.

Jun 12, 2025Claudia Eckert

Summer is the time for being outdoors – but cozy evenings on the patio are quickly disturbed by wasps, mosquitoes, or gnats. For many years, people have used a tried-and-tested home remedy: burning coffee grounds to keep these pests away. This is precisely where our VapoPulver comes in: it combines the well-known effect of coffee grounds with natural herbs and spices that refine the fragrance and create a pleasant atmosphere.


Burning coffee grounds: A tried and tested home remedy against insects

Our grandparents already knew that the smoke from smoldering coffee grounds effectively repels wasps, mosquitoes, and gnats. As the coffee slowly smolders, it releases scents and smoke that insects instinctively avoid. All insects are so-called smoke-avoiders. They have instinctively avoided sources of smoke for centuries because smoke signals a potential danger to them.

The key ingredient lies in the coffee grounds themselves: coffee beans contain natural oils. These coffee oils are heat-resistant and allow the coffee grounds to be smoked at all. It is only through this natural oil content that the fine, consistent smoke is produced, which repels insects.

However, the pure smoke from coffee grounds also has its disadvantages: it smells strong and isn't pleasant for everyone. That's why we developed VapoPulver as the perfect complement.


VapoPulver – The aromatic evolution of the classic home remedy

Our VapoPowder consists of a blend of natural herbs and spices, specially developed to pleasantly flavor the smoke of the coffee powder without affecting its insect-repellent effect.

Important to know:
VapoPulver is not smoked on its own, but always in combination with commercially available coffee powder. The correct mixture is:

2 parts coffee powder : 1 part vaporizer powder

This results in ideal smoke development and a pleasantly aromatic scent.


Which coffee powder do we recommend?

To achieve the best possible results, we recommend using a high-quality organic coffee variety from the supermarket or drugstore. These varieties are:

  • only slightly more expensive than conventional coffee

  • of excellent quality

  • rich in natural coffee oils, which are crucial for smoldering

Important:
Not all inexpensive coffees contain sufficient natural oils. Therefore, it is recommended to choose gently roasted organic varieties, which retain the coffee oils.

This creates a consistent, long-lasting smoke that reliably repels insects – supported by the wonderful aromas of our VapoPulver.
