Insect Repellent
This is a wonderful alternative to commercial insect repellents
which contain DEET. DEET can cause skin rashes, lethargy, muscle
spasms, nausea and irritability.
Base Mixture
1/2 ounce citronella oil
1/4 ounce lavender oil
1/8 ounce pennyroyal oil
1/8 ounce eucalyptus oil
1/8 ounce tea tree oil
1/8 ounce jojoba oil
Do not use this blend undiluted on your skin. Follow these
instructions for diluting:
Insect Repellent Oil (for use on the body)
Add 16 ounces of jojoba or almond oil to the base oil mixture and
blend thoroughly.
Insect Repellent Spray
Add 16 ounces of vodka to the base oil mixture, pour into a spray
bottle, and shake before using.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
