Insect Repellent Pillars

May 22, by SandraW. Leave a Comment

Lemongrass House makes some pretty pillars that double as insect repellent. They’re different from traditional container citronella candles, although the candles do contain citronella.

They also make an all natural mosquito repellent spray that contains lavender, citronella, orange peel, lemongrass, and geranium. See Lemongrass House insect repellent candles for more information.

If you’d like some ideas to make your own natural insect repellent candles, see Make Your Own Mosquito Repellent Candles. You’ll find safe recipes there using essential oils for candles and lotion.

With the arrival of the Japanese Encephalitis Mosquito, it has become important to make sure those pesky mosquitos are not snacking on you.  Japanese encephalitis symptoms include Headache, neck pain, and Nausea. .  Japanese encephalitis does have a vaccine and you should contact your local medical professional for information on obtaining this vaccination.

But how else can you protect yourself against mosquitos? Keep mosquitoes away from exposed skin by wearing long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and socks, you can even wear a mosquito net hat.  Tuck shirts into pants and pants into socks to cover gaps in your clothing where mosquitoes can get to your skin.  For a natural repellent use essential oils for making your own Mosquito bug spray repellent. Add oils to water and spray into the air or add small drops to your clothing.  Use a Necklace or Bracelet oil diffuser to help repel mosquitoes naturally.  Insect bracelets and necklaces are great for children too.
