Plant Oils That Repel Mosquitoes

Plant oils that repel mosquitoes include citronella, cedar,
verbena, pennyroyal, geranium, lavender, pine and cinnamon.

If you want to mix your own repellent:

dilute 1 oz. essential oil of pennyroyal in
16 oz. vegetable oil

then apply to your body with your hands.

Pennyroyal is also an effective bug repellent for cats and dogs
and has been used since Roman times as a flea repellent.
