Hi Sharon;
Would you mind shareing the ratio of EO to water? Deer ticks are
especially bad this year (lots of rain). A friend went berry picking,
looked down, feet and legs were black with them.
Hi Bruce,
This is a totally unscientific "method" that just works for me. I have a 4
oz mister bottle and I fill it about 2/3 full of water, and then dump in
either or both oils till I'm satisfied that they are very 'smelly'--shake
and spray.
In your friend's case (good grief!!), I'd add a tsp (roughly speaking) of
olive or other pure oil to the water and EOs----then shake vigorously before
spraying. The coverage would be even better and last longer.
I've seen a lot more formal "recipes" for insect repellants with the EOs,
but this happens to work just fine in my neck of the woods.
Sharon
