DIY Friday - Natural Bug Repellent

As much as I like it when it gets warm outside, I really hate the bugs.

Here in the Midwest we have mosquito's that make it difficult to enjoy and evening outside, and a variety of other bugs that always find their way into the house.

Today I found a variety of recipes to mix up natural bug repellent, made with things that won't repel anyone but the bugs.

Fly repellent
Bug repellent balm
"Don't bug me candles"
Bug Spray
Spider repellent
Ant repellent

Do you have a favorite natural bug repellent?

  6. When it comes to products we use, it is most important to be comfortable wearing it on our skin or having it around. Bug repellents are concocted to harm bugs, as if the name didn’t make it obvious, eh. So, if you’re not confident with repellents you see in the market, go natural.
