I found a homemade bug spray recipe from One Good Thing By Jillee, and slightly modified it. Her original recipe calls for 2 cups witch hazel, 15 drops lemongrass essential oil, 15 drops citronella essential oil, 5 drops peppermint essential oil, and 5 drops lavender essential oil.
I mixed mine in a spray bottle with:
2 cups water
2-3 T vanilla extract (I just poured, I didn't measure)
15 drops lemongrass essential oil
15 drops citronella essential oil
5 drops peppermint essential oil
5 drops lavender essential oil
Haven't had any problems with bugs when I use it, and get compliments on the smell of it. Good to know, because I can only ever assume:) (I don't have a sense of smell)
