Garden insect repellent
Formula: 630831 Difficulty level: beginner Shelf life: 7 days

A herbal treatment recipe based on a blend of essential oils effective in controlling spiders, ants, fleas, flying insects, and fly, flea and mosquito larvae.

INGREDIENTS

Liquid soap base 6 g (2 tsp)
Peppermint essential oil 20 drops
Clove leaf essential oil 20 drops
Rosemary essential oil 20 drops
Thyme essential oil 20 drops
Warm drinking water 250 ml

PREPARATION METHOD

Add the soap base and essential oils to a glass and mix well. Add the water, mix thoroughly, then transfer the resulting liquid to the dedicated bottle.

Recommended container: 250 ml Optima or Crystal bottle with trigger pump

USE

Spray onto the face, back and stem of plants. Rosemary kills fly, flea and mosquito larvae. Mint keeps ants, spiders and fleas away. Thyme repels leeches and Thyme keeps our plants safe from flying insects.

It is recommended to repeat the treatment every 7-10 days to keep insects away.

Due to the minimal amount of soap used to incorporate the essential oils into the water, the formula is biphasic and separates over time. the bottle should be shaken well before application.
It is recommended to use the solution immediately after preparation. In case of a surplus remaining after use, the solution can be stored in the refrigerator for several days

Hello! In principle yes, but without tests and consultation with a veterinary specialist, we cannot confirm the effectiveness of such a prescription.

Hello. If instead of soap base we use solubilizer for essential oils, would the formula also work for fleas and lice in animals?

Hello! Some sources even recommend dishwashing detergent in such applications, but we would avoid tensides even if they are milder.

Hello! We recommend liquid soap base, unscented natural unscented liquid soap or solid homemade soap scraped and diluted with water. Dish detergent may contain substances unsuitable for plants.

Hello! With any treatment like this, if it rains, the application needs to be repeated, so it's best to use it when rainfall is not expected.

Hello. First of all I would like to thank you for your products and recipes. They are outstanding. I have a question. Can this repellent be used in all weathers, or do we have to be careful not to rain 24 hours after using it?
