I am not at all a fan of bugs, mosquitos or any other creepy crawly. In fact, the only real complaint I have about living on our farm is the number of ticks that can be found and the fact that it freaks me out when my kids come in from playing out in the field or trees and I have to check them over and I often find one of those vile little attachments. My dilemma is that I have never felt safe spraying bug repellant on my kids and putting the crazy ingredients all over them to ward off insects. I now have a new favorite weapon in my arsenal...a blend of essential oils that can be used and I attest, is fantastic at repelling ticks, mosquitos, etc. I think we may all be bathing in this stuff all summer! We just apply it directly to exposed areas and we are good to go
The one I am currently using is a blend of Skimmia Laureola, Catnip Plant, Amyris Bark, African Sandalwood, Cabrueva Balsam, Wild Orange Peel, White Fir Needle, Cedarwood, Citronella Herb, Eucalyptus Leaf/Stem, Hawaiian Sandalwood, Genet Absolute. It smells good too!
If you are interested in this blend too let me know with a comment below and we should chat!
