Guest guest Posted January 3, 2000 Report Share Posted January 3, 2000 Anna, Lemongrass ) is wonderful for anything that crawls, flys, and is a bug! It is what I use in my mop water each week and we do not have bugs in the house. It is also great as a flea and tick repellent for animals!

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2000 Report Share Posted January 3, 2000 First thing that comes to mind is citronella, lemon, lemongrass. They have worked for me during outdoor parties in summertime.

I have a cat so I'm careful not to overdo! I also use the Lemongrass in water when I clean my glass shower as it really keeps the mold and gunk away and it smells nice too! I use 4 drops in a 8oz squeeze bottle with pure water and spray it down good. Best Regards, Dianna /Inner Sanctuary of Healing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
