Tick & Mosquito Repellant
Tick & Mosquito Repellant
Ticks have become more than simply a nuisance, they can carry diseases including Lyme Disease, a debilitating and potentially fatal illness. Eastern Ontario seems to have an overly abundant tick population. On our farm we free range guinea hens to reduce the population of ticks, but not everyone can keep these loud, wandering birds. A great alternative is “Tick Repellant”, it is safe for people of all ages including babies and for use on pets. The addition of peppermint and Lemongrass essential oils or Cedarwood naturally repel ticks.
This spray will also keep mosquitoes away you so you can enjoy the glorious summer evenings.
*** To use: spray ankles, boots and exposed skin prior to heading outside, repeat every 60 to 90 minutes as needed.
