- Choose Your Essential Oil: Pick your favorite essential oil or a combination of a few. Each of these oils has a pleasant scent and is effective at keeping mosquitoes away.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a spray bottle, mix 30 drops of the essential oil with 2 tablespoons of witch hazel or vodka. Then, fill the rest of the bottle with water. Give it a good shake to blend everything together.
- Ready to Use: Your homemade mosquito repellent is now ready! It’s that simple.
How to Use:
- On the Skin: Spray the repellent on your skin, avoiding your eyes and mouth. It’s gentle and safe but always do a patch test first to ensure you don’t have any allergic reactions.
- Around the House: You can also spray it around your home, especially at entry points like windows and doors, to keep mosquitoes out.
