It is that time of year. The warm sun, blooming flowers, buzzing in your ears, and bites on your legs. OUCH! If you are like me, you attract every knot, mosquito, and flying critter known to man.
I was never fond of the big name bug sprays. I never liked the smell. When i first delved into a more holistic lifestyle, I started purchasing bug sprays with mainly essential oils.
Of course, now I make my now.
I have a few different recipes. Most involve either Terrashield, Peppermint Oil, Purify, Geranium, Lemongrass, Rosemary and/or Lavender. These days I am avoiding Peppermint oil since I am breastfeeding. You will find a glass spray bottle with distilled water and about 15 drops each of about 3 oils. I also mix some in fractionated coconut oil in a roller bottle.
