Citronella + a Natural Remedy for Mosquito Bites
Nothing ruins a beautiful summer evening faster than getting eaten alive by mosquitoes. Luckily,
nature offers us a few tools to fight back!
Citronella is one of my favourite essential oils this time of year. It’s a natural mosquito repellent and can be used in outdoor candles, sprays, or diffusers. Unlike chemical repellents, citronella is gentle on the skin and smells fresh and citrusy, perfect for your next picnic or backyard gathering.
But what about when a bug manages to sneak a bite?
That’s where a homeopathic remedy called Ledum can be very helpful. This homeopathic remedy helps relieve the swelling, itching, and discomfort from mosquito bites. It is even better, when taken before and during times of exposure (like dawn and dusk), Ledum may reduce how your body reacts to bites, meaning less swelling and fewer itchy welts.
Next time you’re heading outside, arm yourself with these natural tools and enjoy summer the itch- free way!
