Plants that are mosquito repellent

[KNC7]

Hello everyone!

I'm working on my outdoor enclosure for my tortoises and want to plant plants that are safe for the tortoises and are mosiquito repellents as well. I live in the Philipines and have sulcata and radiated tortoises. Would appreciate any leads! Thanks for taking time to read my post!

Hi @Yvonne G ,

Thanks for replying to my question. But just to clarify, are all these plants safe for them to eat? Or do you think it's best if I plant them along the perimeter of the outdoor enclosure.

You can do a Google search on each one asking if it is edible.
