Time to get ready for Mosquito's
Here is an natural and easy repellent recipe you can make at
home:
Combine in a 16 oz bottle:
·
15 drops lavender oil
·
3-4 Tbsp of vanilla extract
·
10 drops of lemon eucalyptus oil
·
1/4 Cup lemon juice.
Fill bottle with water
Shake & it's ready to use. Try it on yourself first.
NOTE: these oils are common in
health food stores, most pharmacies, garden stores, large chain stores, or you
can order them online
Make some extra to gift to your
neighbors, family & friends.
- Take garlic pills. This works, but might keep some people away too.
- Avon's Skin-So-Soft (this also works for ticks.... put it on your shoes, socks & on your ankles.)
- Some use Eucalyptus oil. . . just put it on exposed areas.
- Some reccomend a fresh dryer sheet in your pocket or under your hat.
- My girlfriend said she ties a strip of dryer sheet into a bow on her dog's collar.
Body chemistry is different, so try
these out to see which one works best for you & your family. No one wants
to get bitten & no one wants to get West Nile Virus!
