If you're tired of insects invading your home, our Insect Repellent Essential Oil Blend acts as a great natural alternative to pesticides.
Citronella, Lavender and Lemon are among the best essential oils for repelling insects, and each has individual pest-repellent properties that combine to keep your home clean and pest-free.
We recommended mixing this essential oil blend for insect repellent with carrier oil or water to use as a homemade bug spray or adding a few drops to an oil burner to deter unwanted visitors.
A famous essential oil insect repellent, citronella oil is such an effective substitute for toxic insecticides that it is recognised as such by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Its sharp, citrus scent is similar to that of lemongrass and is widely used to repel insects, particularly mosquitos, in warmer countries.
Among the many benefits of lavender oil is its ability to keep insects out of the home - particularly moths. Lavender 40/42 typically has a stronger, more consistent lavender scent than other lavender oils and so can hold its own in this blend against other powerful scents, ensuring that its benefits are felt.
Lemon is a refreshing, energising oil whose sharp, zesty scent blends well with many other floral and fruity scents.
