Seasonal Allergies, Bug Repellent, and Anti-itch Cream

Summer is coming and in Minnesota that means allergies, mosquitos, and bug bites. Have you tried prescription allergy medicine but would prefer a natural alternative? Would you prefer to make your own repellent without harsh chemicals and is also safe for your family and pets? Do you want to make a DIY cream for those itchy bites that you can use on even a young child? Here are some of my favorite recipes for these seasonal concerns.


Seasonal Allergies:


Lavender, Lemon, and Peppermint make a natural anti-histamine. This is great for those seasonal allergies that pop up as soon as the spring flowers do. You can diffuse the 3 oils in your home to rid of those dust mites and it also cleans the air (3-4 drops of each in your diffuser). You can also use these oils topically on your feet or the back of your neck for the sneezing, watery eyes, and nasal issues. If you have a rollerball, you can also mix the oils with grapeseed or almond oil (or another carrier oil). This makes using the oils topically quick and easy when you're getting ready in the morning. I do 10 drops of each oil along with 1/2 a teaspoon of the carrier oil in the rollerball. Roll on your feet or behind your ears and you're good to go.


Mosquito Repellent:


Anyone that lives near me (or anywhere in the Midwest really) knows that Mosquitos are annoying pests that we'd like to avoid in the summer. Here is an easy repellent that you can use on anyone in the family:


-16 oz spray bottle
-15 drops lavender oil
-3-4 Tbsp of vanilla extract
-1/4 cup lemon juice
-Fill the remaining with water


Shake and it's ready to use! Citronella and tea tree oil can also be used if you have those oils.


Spider Repellent:


Did you know that spider's hate peppermint? All you need is a spray bottle with water and add 10-15 drops (make sure it smells minty before using). Then you just need to spray in the cracks and gaps that spiders can sneak into your home. This will keep them away!


Ticks:


Ticks are common in wooded areas around us and we certainly want to keep them off our children and pets. Any of these oils mixed with vodka (Yes, vodka! You can actually use it in any bug repellent you make) and water will work in a spray bottle:


-Rose geranium
-Juniper
-Rosewood
-Thyme
-Grapefruit
-Oregano


I would use at least 15-20 drops of each oil and then shake.


Anti-itch Cream:


Getting bug bites during summer is somewhat unavoidable, so here is a great cream that can relieve the itchiness and inflamed skin:


-1 Tbsp of baking soda (soothes skin)
-1 Tspn of high quality sea salt (reduces inflammation)
-2 Tbsp of fractionated coconut oil (moisturizes irritated skin)
-3-5 drops lavender oil (disinfectant)
-3-5 drops lemon oil (reduces heat and inflammation)
-3-5 drops peppermint oil (cools and soothes itching)


Mix ingredients in glass bowl until it's smooth. Then apply to any areas with bug bites/irritated skin.
