Bugs Life


Summer is here...which means a life full of bugs!  It wouldn't be bad it those bugs were like the fun and helpful ones from Disney's a Bug's Life...but they aren't!  They are down right pests.  So instead of reaching for the standard bug spray that tastes horrible and makes you hold your breath...not to mention melts plastic? Make this spray that uses essential oils to naturally repel bugs.  What? You didn't know that you can use plants to repel bugs...YOU BET!  

Bugs Life: Bug Spray

Bring 1 quart of water to a boil
Remove from heat and add 1/4 oz Catnip to steep 6-8 hours.
Then add the following oils:
10 drops Purification
7 drops Palo Santo
10 Drops Digize
6 Drops Lemongrass
5 Drops Rosemary
2 Drops Peppermint

Store in a glass in the refrigerator.
Add to a glass spray bottle and apply and reapply every 30 minutes to hour.  
*It may seem like a lot to reapply...but it is refreshing and smells good.  So get used to it!*
