**This Repellent Blend Targets Which Pests?**
Cockroaches, whether big, small, or flying—lemongrass provides a strong, stimulating repellent scent for them.
Ants—Citronella contains the essence of citronellol and citronellal, which can neutralize the scent trails ants leave behind, effectively disrupting their paths.
Mosquitoes—Catnip and **Bi-Fang-Mu** are among their most disliked scents.
Others: Lavender, Eucalyptus... contribute pleasant botanical aromas, signaling to smaller pests that this is not a welcoming environment.
Q: Is it expensive to use for mopping floors?
Essential oils are certainly an investment, as they are plant extracts, not chemically synthesized, incurring fixed costs. If you find it uneconomical, insecticide is always an option.
This Insect Repellent Blend is formulated with the following essential oils:
(I) The American Pest Control Marvel: North American Catnip
Catnip is perhaps one of the most exciting discoveries in the essential oil world in recent years.
According to a paper presented at the 222nd National Meeting of the American Chemical Society by Chris Peterson, Ph.D., and Joel Coats, Ph.D., North American catnip exhibits approximately ten times the mosquito-repelling effect of DEET, currently the most common chemical mosquito repellent. Two years prior to this study's publication, research from the University of Iowa had already indicated that catnip could repel cockroaches.
The "ten times" claim is experimentally verified; to achieve the same mosquito-repelling effect, catnip requires only one-tenth the dosage of DEET. This experiment focused on common mosquito species in the United States. However, the lead researcher stated that the NEPETALACTONE component in catnip is a key mosquito-repelling ingredient, suggesting significant efficacy against various mosquito species worldwide.
In Taiwan, mosquitoes and cockroaches are the two most bothersome summer pests. Although the cost of catnip has risen significantly due to this research, we have exclusively sourced it to be a crucial component of our repellent formula, allowing everyone to benefit from its insect-repelling prowess.
(II) The Southeast Asian Pest Defense Expert: Citronella
The scent of citronella is reminiscent of a field of lemongrass, offering a warm and herbaceous aroma. In its native Indonesia, citronella (commonly known as lemongrass) has been used to combat summer insects. Dried citronella grass was placed at home entrances and burned to create smoke for mosquito repellent.
Scientifically, citronella contains high levels of citronellol and citronellal, scents that insects strongly dislike, thus achieving their repellent effect.
(III) The Chinese Secret for Mosquito Repellent: **Bi-Fang-Mu** (Litsea cubeba)
**Bi-Fang-Mu** originates from southern China and possesses a complex, hard-to-describe scent that combines notes of disinfectant, wood, and grass. It is called **Bi-Fang-Mu** (commonly known as **Gang Song**) because residents of southern China have used it for mosquito repellent since ancient times, and it is a primary ingredient in mosquito coils. Unfortunately, modern mosquito coils have shifted to synthetic chemicals, obscuring the benefits of **Bi-Fang-Mu**.
In terms of insecticidal and mosquito-repelling effects, **Bi-Fang-Mu** is undoubtedly a top performer. Its aroma when diffused is also a natural herbaceous scent, unlike the pungent chemical smell of today's insecticide coils. Due to its rarity, **Bi-Fang-Mu** is also a precious essential oil source.
(IV) The European Nemesis of Insects: Lavender, Marjoram
Lavender and Marjoram are well-known insect-repelling essential oils in European aromatherapy. Lavender, with its pleasant aroma, is particularly popular. Both offer significant calming and sleep-promoting effects in addition to their insect-repelling properties, making them ideal for summer nights, providing both pest control and restful sleep.
(V) The Heavyweight Insect Killer: Lemongrass
Lemongrass is a powerful insect-repelling essential oil, possessing not only repellent but also insecticidal capabilities. We specifically chose lemongrass for our repellent blend because of its effectiveness against ants.
Ants are undoubtedly the most troublesome pest for any household. Honestly, finding an effective formula for ants can be challenging. Lemongrass, with its potent scent, disrupts the olfactory trails ants rely on for foraging. If you notice a line of black ants on the floor, try spraying a mixture of lemongrass essential oil and water directly onto it. You will soon observe that the ants perish rapidly, and their scent trails are masked, effectively preventing them from navigating your home.
It is also effective against cockroaches. The citral in lemongrass is a component that insects find repulsive. Combined with our repellent blend, the efficacy of lemongrass is further enhanced!
You can purchase these essential oils individually based on your needs for DIY blending, or opt for our pre-mixed multi-ingredient repellent essential oil for simplicity and convenience.
Another wonderful application for insect repellent essential oils is to deter and eliminate plant pests.
From our own experience: a sick herb plant covered in small insects was revived by spraying it with a mixture of insect repellent essential oil and water. Within two days, the insects were gone, and the plant flourished once more!
