All Things Nasty......  
Essential oils can be used to safely protect you and your family from unwanted “critters”, and you can very easily avoid the chemicals that are often found in traditional repellants.
Mice—Spearmint and/or Peppermint to discourage them entering your house. Spray (10 drops essential oil to 10mls water or alcohol) in strategic locations and/or soak a cotton ball and place it in your trouble spots.
Cockroaches—Peppermint and/or Lemongrass placed on cotton balls at the back of cupboards, etc. and/or spray in trouble spots (10 drops essential oil to 10mls water or alcohol).
Ants—Peppermint and/or Spearmint. Smear a line of it across the floor in trouble spots.
Moths/Silverfish—Cedarwood, Patchouli and/or Citronella. Soak cotton balls to use in draws. Or put drops of the oil(s) onto pieces of paper or ribbon and hang these from the window—you can get quite creative with ribbons, etc. to hang, or if, like me, you are not “artistic” simply use a papertowel and drop oils onto this and stuff it in the top of the window when it is open, or in your draws.
Headlice—Dolphin Clinic “Headlice Repellant” 100ml. Apply to dry hair. Comb through, leave on for several hours, apply normal shampoo directly to hair, then add water and rinse as normal. You can also add NZ Manuka to your final rinse to leave on your hair as a deterrent.
Flies— Vaporise Citronella and/or Peppermint. Sometimes Lavender and/or Lemongrass are also effective.
Mosquitoes—Peppermint and Citronella. Use our Dolphin Clinic Insect Repellant spray. This contains Peppermint and Citronella in a base of Lavender Water and Witch hazel.
Weevils—Clove and/or Nutmeg. Soak a cotton ball with these oils and place them in trouble spots in your cupboards/pantry. And/or add these oils to a spray to clean the surfaces in affected areas.
Dolphin Clinic Bugs Away Insect Repellant can be used for most nasty critters in the absence of the more specific essential oils as listed above.
