Dear AromaGoddess,
Is there any aromatherapy solution you could recommend for insect repellent? I hate using all those dangerous, smelly chemicals on my kids when they play outside.

Dear Denice,
You are so right! Deet and other chemicals found in commercial insect repellents can be so harmful and toxic. Here is a recipe for a spray that works great!
Bug Repellent
4 oz spray bottle filled half with distilled water, half vodka (any cheap grocery store vodka will do, or you can make this with just distilled water)
13 drops Eucalyptus essential oil
12 drops Geranium essential oil
6 Lemongrass essential oil
5 Thyme essential oil (Lavender can be used in place of Thyme. Both are powerful against mosquitos.)
