EPA Approved All Natural Effective Bug Repellent

Some “all-natural” sprays tote the benefits of essential oils in their repellents but don’t actually use them or use artificial forms of the essential oils that are ineffective. If a spray isn’t EPA approved, you can’t be sure that the spray is proven effective.

EPA Approved, Proven Natural Mosquito Repellent

DIY All Natural Bug Off Spray Recipe

If you want to DIY your own, be sure to use Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade (CPTG) essential oils to get the best results! Artificial and adulterated (chemically altered) essential oils will not work the same. CPTG guarantees a very high level of standard and are proven effective.

This recipe utilizes the EPA approved, proven TerraShield® blend plus four other powerful essential oils shown to repel bugs.

Ingredients

Fee free to double this recipe and put in a 2 oz spray bottle.

• 1 oz spray bottle (natural plastic or glass is best)
• Organic Sesame Oil (other carrier oils may attract bugs. This one does not and this is the oil used in TerraShield®)
• 10-20 drops TerraShield® blend
• 5 drops each:
  • Lemongrass
  • Geranium
  • Peppermint
  • Citronella
• Optional: Chalkboard Labels

If you need a stronger formula, add more of any of the above essential oils and/or try adding Grapefruit, Thyme, or Cedarwood.

Putting It Together

1. Remove spray top (if necessary)
2. Add the essential oils to your spray bottle.
3. Top off with sesame oil: fill to top of the bottle, just below the neck. Be sure to leave room for some air at the top.
4. Securely tighten on spray top.
5. Apply label. Put some packing tape on top of label to protect it.
6. Enjoy!
