Hello, All:
In the movie, "A Good Year", set in Provence, France, there are two
scenes of scorpions in bedrooms in which the guests are startled upon
seeing these creeping creatures. The hostess comes in and kills the
scorpions and utters the word, "Lavender"! But I did not get the point.
Does this mean the plant lavender attracts scorpions or propells them?
Thanks for reading and replying.

I think you mean "repels", not "propells". >> Stay informed about: Scorpions and Lavender |
