My Herbal Bug Spray experiment.

Posted by Tracy on Jun 1, 2012 in Fun Recipes, Reviews: Products | 4 comments

More and more I’m going the way of “better health” for me and my family. Its baby-steps for me. I want less chemicals in our life and so I’m trying an herbal bug spray that has worked for others. I bought my herbal mix from the Bulk Herb Store <— my affiliate link and am following their directions with a little tweaking. I have to let this steep in the fridge for about 3 wks. I just made this the other day and plan to give you an update when its ready. This is a spray to use on my family, by the way, not my plants.

You have a face!!!! And a voice!!!!! How fun to hear and see you! Wow, what a cool idea. The idea of using bug spray on kids is just so scary, so I love that you’re doing this. Let us know how it works and thanks for linking up to Making Your Home Sing Monday!

Can you tell me if this is a mosquito repellant or is it only effective on gnats and other nuisance bugs?

  Mine is still steeping in the fridge so I’ve not been able to try it out yet, but my understanding is that its an effective way to keep the bugs off you and your kids. I assume that goes for mosquitoes. I plan to finish it off and try it out this coming weekend though. If you go through my “Bulk Herb Store” [affiliate] link and type in “Vinegar of the Four Thieves” or “herbal bug spray” I think you will find the description and story behind this formula. I’ll also write about our results back her at the blog after we try it out. Thanks for asking.
