Natural Bug Spray
Our own unique blend of locally sourced functional herbs repels pests the homeopathic way. Avoid harsh chemicals. Protect your family with our all-natural, DEET-free formula. Effective against mosquitoes, no-see-ums, biting flies, and ticks.
Mugwort is an excellent start. It’s not just for its aromatic qualities; it’s quite effective at repelling mosquitoes. Then we have cedar, which is superb for warding off moths, fleas, and ticks. Thyme also deserves a mention—it has been tested and shown to repel mosquitoes effectively.
Goldenrod might not be the first thing you think of for bug repellency, but it has soothing properties that enhance the effectiveness when combined with other ingredients. Lavender is a personal favorite for many good reasons. Its delightful fragrance is matched by its ability to keep mosquitoes, midges, and moths at a distance.
Chamomile goes beyond its common use in teas for calming nerves; it also helps soothe the skin after insect bites. Eucalyptus, particularly the Lemon Eucalyptus variety, is top-notch and even recommended by reputable sources as an effective mosquito repellent.
Now, regarding the essential oils:
Lemon Eucalyptus stands out as particularly effective against mosquitoes. Lavender continues to be a staple not only for its relaxing properties but also for its insect repellency. Geranium oil is great for repelling ticks and mosquitoes. Doubling up with cedar oil strengthens the repellent's effectiveness against a broad range of insects. And citronella is a well-known, time-tested mosquito repellent.
The method involves macerating these herbs in alcohol to extract their essential oils and active compounds. After straining out the plant matter, you blend this solution with additional essential oils to create a potent natural bug spray.
However, it’s worth noting that these claims about the effectiveness of these ingredients have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. It’s always prudent to test the spray on a small area of your skin first to ensure there are no adverse reactions.
By embracing what nature provides, we can protect our spaces and ourselves from pests in a way that respects both our health and the environment.
