A little day-to-day maintenance goes a long way toward keeping insects from showing up in the first place. This simple diffuser blend layers four warm, herbal oils into a fresh scent for the home, and it is easy to keep in regular rotation through the buggier months.
Lavender brings a soft floral calm, citronella adds its bright lemony grassiness, a touch of cinnamon cassia warms the blend with spice, and clary sage grounds it with a herbal depth. Each of these oils has been reported to help keep bugs at bay, which makes this a natural blend to run near the doors and windows you open most.
When to use it
Run this as everyday maintenance, especially in the warmer months or any time insects start finding their way in. It works best positioned near entry points, open windows, and doorways where bugs tend to slip through.
Tips for the best result
Place the diffuser near your most-used doors and windows.
Keep cinnamon cassia measured. It is strong and can quickly dominate.
Run it on a regular schedule rather than only after you spot a bug.
