BUGS BUGS BUGS BUGS
What would the summer be without them? Nice. Thought I would share some essential oil solutions for the common bug problems since they are so easy and at the same time help us.

There are natural alternatives to using toxic chemicals for our pest problems. Its great to be able to repel bugs while helping ourselves and our environment at the same time.

How to use oils for Pest Control
Pistol grip squirt bottle or spray bottle
Filled with water and
A 3-10 drops essential oil
Shake well and spray away.

ANTS, BEETLES, CATERPILLARS, COCKROACHES, FLEAS, MOTHS, PLANT LICE, GNATS and SPIDERS: are all repelled by Peppermint, Spearmint, Thieves and/or Purification.

Ants will not cross a line of Peppermint or Spearmint. Put across any entrance they use. Peppermint on a cotton ball will also repell MICE.

APHIDS: Cedarwood, Hyssop, Peppermint or Spearmint – Mix 20 drops in 2 quarts salt water, shake well and spray on plants.

SLUGS, SNAILS, WEEVILS: Cedarwood, Patchouli or Pine oil

CUTWORM: Thyme or Sage

BEES: Purification, Melrose or Pan Away

MOSQUITOES: Lavender, Peppermint, Spearmint, Lemongrass, Purification and/or Eucalyptus. 10 drops Purification in a spray bottle of water is a great repellent.

TICKS: Lavender, Lemongrass, Sage, Thyme, Oregano, Peppermint, or Purification

BITES: Purification draws out poisons. Lavender with Peppermint reduce swelling and infection also.

Research shows that the oils alone are repellants, when water is added, they become insecticides!

Here's the disclaimer: since this has not been evaluated by the drug administration, use under your own power.

I have just created a ready made all natural (of course) mosquito repellent, super charged with lots of oils, great smelling, good on the skin, very kid friendly, easy spritzer, non-greasy, awesome for healing bug bites (if you forget to use it before the fact), etc. Aren't I a good sales pitcher? So if you don't want to make your own, e-mail me at tstonics@hotmail.com to order yours. A 4 oz. spritzer is $7 + shipping.

Skin Soother

Skin Soother

Use Skin Soother as a protector against harmful UV rays as well as skin repairer after sun exposure. Good for use on all skin types as a light, quickly absorbed rehydrator. Helps sooth, balance and repair.

History: T's Tonic's Skin Soother was created out of a need to have both a chemical-free sunscreen for our fair, sun shy, skin combined with a lotion good for after sun exposure. We were going on a trip where sun exposure would be intense and packing space minimal. I combined a proven Myrrh sunscreen recipe with pure aloe vera and powerful skin regenerating oils hoping to have all our bases covered. Not only did we all fall in love with the feel, scent and results of this oil but we had others begging to use it. Upon getting back from our trip I found "The Oil" in high demand not only by my husband, who insisted we needed a bottle in every room, but by others needing help with various skin issues. It's been used to help rashes, eczema, acne, minor burns, dry skin and scalp, and other skin conditions with effective results.

What people are saying about Sore Muscle Soother Salve:

"I fell (off of a high stand) and thought I had broken my shoulder and hip when I landed. I used the salve and I was dancing again in two days. I think it really helped. I'm taken by it." - Kenny

"After going over the handlebars into a pile of rocks, I got up knowing that this would leave a mark. Sure enough, my left hip was throbbing. That night, before bed, I applied the Muscle Soother to the area and worked it in good. The next morning, I couldn't even tell I had wiped out. It's good." - Jason
