Stop Bugging Me!


We have all heard the news reports of what DEET can do for your health, so turn to plant oils instead. For spray application, mix 20 drops of essential oil with 1 cup of grape seed oil and 1½ cups of purified water; shake well.

The Bug: Ants The Remedy: Peppermint or Citronella oil The Technique: 3-5 drops on windowsills and doorways

The Bug: Blackflies The Remedy: Cinnamon or Turmeric oil The Technique: Spray clothing or exposed skin

The Bug: Cockroaches The Remedy: Citrus or Kaffir Lime Oil The Technique: Spray problem areas like basements and under kitchen sinks

The Bug: Mosquitoes The Remedy: Catnip or Thyme Oil The Technique: Spray clothing or exposed skin

The Bug: Ticks The Remedy: Lemon or Eucalyptus Oil The Technique: Spray clothing or exposed skin

Or you can purchase an organic, natural bug spray. We recomment Clean Aura Happy Camper Bug Spray; www.cleanaura.com. It’s awesome, natural and LOCALLY made in Fon Du Lac, WI.
