A Little DIY Action
DIY Bug Repellant
What you Need:
Glass Spray Bottle (I picked this one up at Lakewinds Food Co-op in Richfield)
2 Ounces of Alcohol or Witch Hazel (I just used something I had already in my cupboard)
Distilled Water
Eucalyptus Citriodora Essential Oil (I used Veriditas Botanicals-a local organic essential oil company here in Minneapolis)
*Pour 2 ounces of alcohol into the spray bottle. Next fill almost to the top with distilled water. Add 30-50 drops of oil. (The more you use the stronger it will be) Gently shake to mix and BOOM! Natural, inexpensive, chemical-free bug spray that works!
