Healthy Living Tips: A Recipe for All-Natural Bug Spray
Nathan Goodyear, M.D.
Toxins are everywhere. I am always looking for ways to reduce my families exposure to toxic chemicals. There is nothing more dangerous than home fumigation for bugs, filling every corner of your home with toxins. These toxins are very dangerous, as they linger in the house and we are continually exposed to them.
I have found a recipe for an all-natural alternative to your everyday bug spray, a home bug spray using essential oils. Not just any essential oil will do here; they must be pure and unadulterated. For this reason, I use YoungLiving Essential Oils.
Here’s the recipe for an all-natural bug-spray solution.
- 20 drops of Peppermint Essential Oil
- 10 drops of Cypress Essential Oil
- 1 cup water
Mix well. Be sure to shake the mixture well before spraying.
You’ll enjoy a bug-free AND toxin-free environment. This solution is great for ants and cockroaches. I have found that it works with spiders as well. With this approach, you are one step closer to detoxing your home and your life!
