Calmer SolutionsCitronella Essential Oil 10ml – 100% Pure & Natural – Ideal for Insect Repellent, Aromatherapy, and Diffuser Use – Steam Distilled in The UK

I get eaten alive by mozzies, and was covered in bites. The usual sprays never work and they stink. I wanted a natural solution so I bought this. I put a drop on my hat and on the sun shade. Some on a candle, and I added a few drops to water in a spray bottle and sprayed around the windows and bedding. It worked. Not one bite since. Smells like you would expect but it's a smoother natural smell, not astringent like insect repellent. Great value too.

Bought this for insect repellent when fishing. Works great and nice small bottle for the fishing bag.

Did deter my cats from scaling the Christmas tree for a few weeks, although the smell eventually wore off and I had unfortunately ran out of the oil. Very strong scent, I would recommend and buy again for next year.

Very impressed with the strength of this oil. I bought it as a natural repellent for fleas and ticks.I put a few drops on the outer surface of my dogs' collars, and a few drops diluted with water in a spray bottle for their bedding and the soft furnishings. It lasts for ages.A nice lemony scent without the acidity.

The smell is just absolutely gorgeous

Good aroma lasts a good while

So beautifully fragrant and yet again not let down by Calmer Solutions. So much cheaper with this company than the premium priced versions at Neal's Yard. I still have the "Spearmint" oil I bought from Calmer Solutions in 2013. I was impressed the last time with Calmer Solutions and this time I'm not disappointed again. The bottles are fairly durable, though fitted with permanent inset droppers. I'm glad Calmer Solutions have stuck to their principles in using dark bottles as the oil won't lose its strength if left out in natural light.Used in conjunction with an aromatherapy vapour machine as well as a water humidifier, the scent of natural citronella is very welcomed this time of year. Shifted the midges that had a cheek to come inside my home after a hot day. They didn't last long with this stuff - after five drops in water and allowed to pervade, my whole home smells beautifully earthy and natural. A very pleasing fragrance that has a good and long lasting factor. If using the oil for massage, it can be used on skin but this product must be mixed with a carrier oil (Calmer Solutions provide loads but the cheapest I use is their "Almond Sweet") if application is made on skin for massage processes. It feels fresh on my skin and has a very strong perfume. Perfect yet again Calmer Solutions - thank you! (C)NR2 2015.

Mixed this with vanilla extract and water in spray bottle to keep mosquitos away in SE asia. Very effective.
