Summer means mosquitoes.

Are you one of those certain people they flock to?

 

If mozzies are driving you crazy try this natural prevention – lemon eucalyptus oil.

Lemon eucalyptus essential oil was found very effective in protecting against mosquitoes. The lemon eucalyptus was almost as protective as neurotoxic DEET repellent but WITHOUT the toxic ingredients.

 

The Science:

In a 2014 Australian study a mixture with 32% lemon eucalyptus provided more than 95% protection for three hours, compared to 40% DEET repellent that gave 100% protection for seven hours, although it needed to be applied twice as often. The product tested was Mosi-guard. However there are other brands of natural insect repellants based on lemon eucalyptus oil available.

Why not give it a try?
