Synthetic Insect Screen used to avoid the insects into your sweet home Aromatic Insect Screen

Added: (Mon Aug 30 2010)

Pressbox (Press Release) - In addition to making a Insect Screen topical, aromatherapy offers the ability to diffuse natural insect and mosquito repellents inside your house -- something you'd never do with synthetic chemicals. Not something you'd want to be breathing all the time! But aromatherapy diffusers, particularly nebulizing diffusers which allow you to Insect Screen control the concentration of essential oil in the air, can disperse pure, natural, organic aromatics throughout the day or night to keep those critters away.
Ready to make your own formula? First decide whether you'd like a spray or lotion. A spray needs something to "hold" the essential oils in the liquid, otherwise they'll quickly float to the top ever time they're mixed. You can use one of the following as your base liquid for a spray: Rubbing alcohol, vodka, or witch hazel are excellent. The general rule of thumb for the concentration is anywhere between 5 and 10% essential oil in the base. So if you're making 4 ounces of spray, that's 120 millilitres. Five percent of that is 6 millilitres, which is 120 drops (if you don't have a measuring pipette). Obviously if you'd like to make a 10% concentration, just double the amount of essential oil -- just keep an eye out for any skin irritation.

Insect Screen used to prevent the home from insects and diseases. Some common essential oils to repel mosquitoes are Rose Geranium, Citronella, Lemongrass and Peppermint (for children, use Spearmint). You can blend all these together to make up your 10%, and its likely that a combination of oils will work better than any oil alone. If you do blend the oils, keep the mint at only 1-2%. You only need a tiny bit to make that little "effervescence" the buggers won't like. Also, Cedar wood is considered helpful, especially in combination with the Geranium, to repel ticks in addition to mosquitoes. Also, interestingly, the latest scientific research indicates that Catnip essential oil is actually the single most potent Insect Screen repelling essential oil, though it is a good bit more costly that the oils already mentioned. But if you're looking for the most potent blend, find some catnip to include!
he recipes are very simple. Find a four ounce container of your choice. A spray bottle or something with a pump top, depending on your choice of base. Fill this about 9/10ths of the way up with your base, be it lotion, vodka, etc. Here, a measuring pipette is very helpful: For a synergy formula of 10%, use 6ml Geranium, 3ml Citronella, 2ml Lemongrass and 1ml Cedarwood.or just use 6ml Catnip! We're not quite certain which will work better, because essential oil blends have not been tested. It would be fun to experiment here yourself -- you might find a blend that you love the aroma of, and the bugs really detest! Insect Screen used to prevent the home from insects and diseases
