- Several essential oil singles have proven themselves to be powerful insect repellents. A few include Lemon Eucalyptus oil due to its citronella component, Catnip because of the interesting theory that cats went crazy for it because of its natural bug-repellent properties, and Nootka Tree which has a naturally deep, woodsy almost gasoline-like aroma that prevents a mosquito from closing in on you. But, not one oil works as well as essential oils in a combination - there is something about essential oil properties that increase in ability when in a formulation. Our Bug Bite Relief blend has proven over and over with our customers that it is a top choice and the best essential oil blend for keeping biting bugs at bay.
- Its powerhouse combination of Eucalyptus- Lemon, Cedarwood- Virginian, and Catnip alone would be enough to repel bugs. By adding to it a few more key oils, Ylang Ylang and Nootka tree, Arborvitae, and Vanilla CO2, this blend is tremendously effective in keeping gnats, mosquitos, and other little ankle biters at bay. Our customers have never been more satisfied with the effectiveness of this blend in preventing a bug bite.
- There are several ways to use Bug Bite Relief. As a topical skin treatment, you can blend 15-18 drops into 1 oz of unscented cream or carrier oil. Keep any critters off of you and away from you by gently massaging onto exposed skin when you head outdoors. Other ideas are for on-the-go relief, add a drop of Bug Bite Relief to Edens Garden Jewelry diffusers or make your own floating candle blend by adding mint leaves, rosemary, fresh lime slices, and water to a mason jar, then add 10 drops of Bug Bite Relief essential oil. Add a floating votive candle and tie a piece of twine around each jar. To avoid sensitivities, especially with people who have sensitive skin, we highly recommend performing a skin patch test when using a new essential oil topically.

Shake the ingredients well and spray onto the skin and/or clothing, using as often as needed. Be sure to keep the bottle in a cool, dark place to preserve the ingredients and protect them against the sun.
