Ingredients

- 5 drops of peppermint essential oil

- 5 drops of citrus essential oil

- 10 drops of basil essential oil

- 2 tablespoons of grapeseed oil (you can also use extra virgin olive oil)

- 350 ml of water

- a spray bottle

How to

1. Pour the water into the spray bottle.

2. In a small container, mix the three essential oils with the grapeseed oil.

3. Then, pour this mixture into the spray bottle.

Usage

Because water is denser than oils, be sure to shake well the spray before each use.

Thus, the oils will be diluted and even more effective in repelling insects.

This spray can be applied directly to the skin and clothes, but also to all surfaces in the house:windows, curtains, armchairs, chairs, lampshades...

Result

There you go, now you know how to make your own homemade insecticide :-)

No more flies, mosquitoes, flying ants and horseflies disturbing your lunch at home!

And since this product is 100% natural, there is also no need to worry about the toxic products used in commercial insecticides.

You can spray as many products as you want. No health risk. You can breathe easy :-)

Why it works

With its pleasant fresh scent, this natural citrus insecticide is just as effective as commercial mosquito repellents.

Indeed, thanks to their natural properties, peppermint and basil are among the 11 anti-mosquito plants that you should have at home!

Where to find essential oils?

We recommend that you use these products of certified 100% organic origin:

- peppermint essential oil

- citrus essential oil

- basil essential oil

- grapeseed oil

For the spray bottle, you can simply clean and reuse an old bottle. If you don't have one, we recommend this spray bottle.
