古人发现艾叶、薄荷、菖蒲等植物散发的气味能驱赶蚊虫，便将它们晒干后装入香囊。这些草药含有特殊成分，蚊虫闻之避退。香囊常挂在床头、系于腰间，或置于衣袖中，让药香自然散发，形成保护屏障。
Chinese ancient people found that herbs like mugwort, mint, and sweet flag gave off scents that gently repelled insects. Dried and tucked into sachets, they released a soft aroma that offered natural protection.
香囊不仅是驱蚊工具，也是精致的装饰品。人们用绸缎缝制，绣上花鸟、福字等吉祥图案，既实用又美观。端午时节佩戴艾草香囊的习俗至今仍在延续，而古代女子还会在香囊中加入丁香、藿香，让香气更清雅。
These sachets, often silk-made and delicately embroidered, were worn at the waist or kept close, blending beauty with purpose. During the Dragon Boat Festival, wearing a fragrant sachet remains a quiet tradition.
相比现代化学驱蚊剂，香囊更天然环保，且制作简单。如今，许多人仍喜欢用中药香包驱蚊，尤其是孕妇和儿童，避免接触刺激性成分。这一古老方法展现了人与自然和谐共处的智慧，至今仍有借鉴意义。
Compared to chemical repellents, herbal sachets are safer, more natural, and kinder to the body—especially for children and mothers. They reflect a timeless wisdom: harmony between people and nature.
