Bug-B-Gone

Bug-B-Gone is a blend of essential oils of Lemongrass, Citronella, Geranium, and Lavender with Witch Hazel.

When you purchase most insect repellents, you are paying for water. With Bug-B-Gone, you are paying only for the concentrate and aluminum spritzer bottle. You add your own distilled water to create a spray. You should be able to make 9-10 batches of Bug-B-Gone spray from one bottle of concentrate! (Amount depends on how many drops are used in each batch).

To make a batch of Bug-B-Gone spray, shake the Bug-B-Gone concentrate well to mix the essential oils with the Witch Hazel. Add 25-35 drops of Bug-B-Gone concentrate to the aluminum spritzer included with your order, then add 4 ounces of distilled water. Shake vigorously before each use.

Lightly mist over body, being careful to avoid the eyes. Apply as needed.

This blend can be used on dogs, humans, and horses to help repel flies, gnats, mosquitoes, and ticks. This is a natural product and will not be 100% effective against all insects, but will help to repel them.

Bug-B-Gone concentrate is $40 for 15 ml (approx 300 drops), and includes a reusable aluminum spritzer bottle.
