Ahh , summer is here at last. That long awaited time of warmth and sun, being outdoors and lazy days.
Being outdoors is wonderful , but the insects and ants love it too! Especially your picnic!
Dropping peppermint oil on your picnic rug and on the ground around you will not hurt the ants and it will keep them away, so you can enjoy your fine fare.
Want to bring the warm summer vibes into your home? Try blending Orange, Lemon and Cinnamon leaf and add a few drops to your diffuser.
Deter night time insects blend Cinnamon leaf, geranium and lavender. Add some patchouli for a party vibe. Diffuse this blend indoors and out.
When despite all your efforts, those little critters had a munch on you, Lavender is the go to oil. It will stop the itch of the bite and prevent infection. It is also very effective to add eucalyptus to the lavender.
