Natural Cedarwood Essential Oil: Extracted from the wood of the juniper tree (Juniperus mexicana), Cedarwood oil repels and kills scent-driven insects, such as mosquitos, fleas, and ticks. These insects, as well as many others, need the pheromone octopamine to maintain necessary life functions (respiration, metabolism, reproduction, movement, etc.) the cedarwood oil blocks the octopamine receptors causing the insects to die. Fortunately, beneficial insects like bees and butterflies are not affected. The oil from cedarwood also alters insect pH balance, breaks down the fat that insects need to survive, causing death. Cedarwood oil is very effective at leaching moisture from targeted insects which eventually dries them out and kills them.
Citronella Oil Derived from hardy grasses (Cymbopogon nardus), this familiar insect control solution has been used in households for years. Citronella Oil works to repel scent-driven insects by masking the smells that are attractive to them.
Prior to use, keep vegetation as short as possible and remove yard debris that can harbor pests, such as leaves, grass clippings and branches. Apply while bees are not active. Shake well before and during use to maintain consistency. Treat pests by applying a second treatment within 3–10 days to terminate full pest life cycle. Repeat full coverage application as often as needed to maintain control. Reapply after heavy rain event.
Avoid application during high temperatures in full sun. With your sprayer attached to your hose and your water spigot on, begin applying by spraying around bottom of house and walking backwards to property line. Spray plants, mulch and soil until entire property is treated. Target high traffic areas. Wait until treated surfaces are dry before letting people and pets interact where product was applied. Repeat as needed to control pest problem. Each 32 oz. bottle lasts approximately 3-5 minutes, depending on garden hose size and water pressure.
