Rating: 3.9/5(58)
Total Time: 10 minsServings: 1Published: Jun 12, 20181. Why Homemade Bug Spray? At my house, we joke about mosquitoes being the size of birds, and they certainly do seem to come in flocks! Keeping bugs away with a good mosquito repellent is a top priority, especially with small children who are prone to scratching mosquito bites.
2. 5-Minute Essential Oil Bug Spray Recipe. If you have the ingredients to make it, this is the best bug spray recipe I’ve found. This recipe uses essential oils, which are highly effective for natural bug protection.
3. DIY Bug Spray Recipe Variations. Natural bug sprays can also be made without essential oil using dried herbs and witch hazel or vinegar. This recipe is typically considerably less expensive, though it is also not as potent as the recipe above.
4. Vinegar Tick and Insect Repellent Recipe. Fair warning: this stuff stinks when it is wet, though the smell disappears as it dries. It works incredibly well though, and this is the one I use when I’m going to be in the deep woods or other tick-infested areas.
5. Other Simple Insect-Repelling Ideas. Use a non-toxic, plastic-free insect-repelling band like these, which is easier to use on children and very effective.
6. Store-Bought Natural Insect Repellent Options. There are now also some good natural insect repellent options available to purchase if you don’t have all of the ingredients on hand or want a simpler solution.
