Melanie Sandford on Instagram: "I am totally enjoying this mixture for bug spray as I was covered in bugs earlier and once I sprayed this on all the little bees and flies stopped bothering me and I got to sit outside and edit this video very comfortably. Cedarwood effectively repels and can kill ticks. Lavender repels mosquitoes and has up to 80% effectiveness and can last eight hours. eucalyptus can mask the pheromones that attract wasps. I used 15 drops of each of the essential oils: Cedarwood, lavender, eucalyptus. I used 1 teaspoon of castor oil 1 ounce witch hazel 1 ounce distilled water. Make sure to shake well, even though the witch hazel does act as a natural emulsifier. Castor oil is also a natural bug repellent because of the ricinoleic acid. Music by @reesetea 🥰 #naturalremedi
