ugs and insects can be a major problem in the warmer months of the year. Whether you are dealing with ants in the kitchens, mosquitoes in the yard or fleas on your pets, bugs are a big nuisance! Unfortunately many commercially made products contain
B
questionable ingredients that just aren’t safe to spray around or apply around your kids or your home. And your skin is your larg- est organ- and it will readily absorb all of these chemicals.
Upper Cervical Care Is Your Head On Straight? Luckily, there are more natural products and ways to repel
bugs and insects such as herbs and essential oils. Below is a list of 11 different essentials oils that repel bugs and insects so you can feel better about banishing the bugs but keeping your family healthy!
Peppermint Peppermint essential oil is one of the most hated oils by many
insects. Peppermint oil can repel ants, fleas, flies, lice, moths, and more. You can use it diluted in a carrier oil on your skin or mixed in a spray. You can also place cotton balls with peppermint oil on them around your home- especially in the kitchen where ants can be a problem.

oil is closely related to citronella, which most of us know repels insects. Lemongrass oil will help to repel mosquitoes, fleas, fruit flies, and moths. No seeums- which run rampant in my area and are almost worse than mosquitoes also hate lemongrass.
Citronella No natural bug repellent article would be complete without
citronella. Citronella candles have been a staple on back decks and picnic tables for decades to keep mosquitoes and other biting bugs at bay. In addition to burning candles, citronella oil can also be used in insect repellent sprays and oils. Citronella oil will help repel mosquitoes, fleas, flies, moths, and many other insects.
Lavender Lavender oil– the oil for everything- is also an effective es-
sential oil for repelling bugs. Use lavender for fleas, flies, mos- quitoes, and chiggers. Lavender is also great at soothing bug bites after they occur.
