I came across one of my very first ‘Mosquito Repellants’ the other day and wanted to share the recipe with you. I just made up a new bottle and it is working very well.
‘Mosquito Repellant Recipe’
What you will need: 6-8 oz. spray bottle, Cypress Essential Oil, Eucalyptus Essential Oil, Geranium Essential Oil, 6-8 oz. Distilled Water and a dropper.
Fill your spray bottle with 6-8 oz. Distilled Water. Add 30 drops each: Cypress Essential Oil, Eucalyptus Essential Oil, and Geranium Essential Oil. Shake until the oils have mixed with the water, then spray the entire body and clothing. Spray some in your hands and smooth onto the face area.
You will need to re-shake the bottle for each use to ensure the oil is mixed with the water.

You are welcome! That is what I’m trying to teach people; that there are natural alternatives to the harsh chemicals they put on their skin. 🙂
