Great for bug and tick spray
I use this in my bug and tick recipe, we live where several ticks carry disease so it is important to have a natural treatment to keep them off of us. This oil is great in my recipe for that.
Citronella
I love the smell. I ordered this to use in my diffuser to ward off the mosquitoes here in Southern Louisiana!
Citronella
As a longtime dōTRRA customer, I want to say this, and all the other oils I have tried, is of good quality at a reasonable price. I’d recommend it to others.
Great Bug Repellent!
Love the smell of this oil and uses - especially as a bug repellent. I used this oil when I went to the outback in Australia. Insects stayed away! Finally a bug repellent that smells good and actually repels bugs!
Interesting oil
This is a new one for me. Smells nice. Looking forward to using it. Havn’t ever gotten an oil I didn’t love from aromatics!
