THE 5 ABSOLUTE BEST BEAUTYBERRY INSECT REPELLENT RECIPES ...
From outmoreusa.com

- Spray Using Rubbing Alcohol. Originally posted in Prepper Gardens, this recipe is first because alcohol is effective at extracting the necessary compounds from the Beautyberry leaves.
- Salve Using Vodka. For whatever reason, you might prefer using some other kind of alcohol besides rubbing alcohol. This recipe is from The Grow Network and uses vodka (or any other hard alcohol around 100 proof) blended with oil to make an insect repellent cream.
- Spray with Witch Hazel. This recipe is from Basmati and is fairly simple, provided you have some Witch Hazel. Witch Hazel is good for sensitive skin so it’s great to use if you have it.
- Cream that Includes Beautyberry Bark. Another recipe from Prepper Gardens, this recipe includes some of the Beautyberry Bark to give it an earthy, woody musk.
- Cream with Essential Oils and Vitamin E. This is by far the most complicated recipe but the result may be worth it. Vitamin E is great for your skin and citronella has insect repellent properties of it’s own so this cream is likely more effective than using Beautyberry alone.

- Essential Oils. There are several plants whose essential oils have insect repellent properties. Popular ones include … Verbena. Lavender. Pine. Catnip. Rosemary.
- Cinnamon Oil. In 2004 the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry published a study. It found that cinnamon oil can kill mosquito larvae. The researchers also believed that cinnamon oil could be a good mosquito repellent … though they hadn’t tested it against adult mosquitoes.
- Thyme Oil. Carvacrol and alpha-terpinene are two compounds derived from the essential oil of thyme. One study found they had greater repellency than a commercial DEET repellent.
- Fennel Oil. Researchers at Seoul National University in Korea did a study. They found that a spray repellent containing 5% fennel oil was 84% effective after 90 minutes.
- Neem Oil. Neem oil is another effective dog-safe repellent. It’s an extract from the tropical neem tree … and it has insecticidal compounds called azadirachtins.
- Cedar Oil. Cedar oil is a great non toxic option to keep pests off your dog. It repels mosquitoes, as well as fleas and ticks. In fact, it’s said that the ancient Egyptians used cedar oil in embalming to keep the bugs away.
- Citronella. A well-known natural mosquito repellent. The lotions, sprays, and candles use oil from the citronella plant. The University of Guelph did a study on citronella and it’s ability to repel mosquitos.
- Garlic. Feeding your dog garlic can also help make him less appealing to insects. Garlic is safe for dogs in moderation. Always use US grown organic fresh whole clove garlic.
- Celery Seed Extract. A Thai study compared 15 mosquito repellents. All the repellents contained a topical extract from celery, Apium graveolens. The repellents were active against a wide range of mosquito species … comparable to a 25% DEET formula.

8 NATURAL & HOMEMADE INSECTICIDES: SAVE YOUR GARDEN ...

- Vegetable Oil Spray. A homemade insecticide made from vegetable oil mixed with a mild soap (such as Dr. Bronner's castile soap) can have a devastating effect on certain troublesome insects, such as aphids, mites, thrips, etc.
- Soap Spray. A very similar homemade pesticide to the oil spray is a soap spray, which is also effective for controlling mites, aphids, whiteflies, beetles, and other hungry little insects.
- Neem Oil Spray. An oil extracted from the seeds of the neem tree is a powerful natural insecticide, capable of disrupting the life cycle of insects at all stages (adult, larvae, and egg), making it a great resource for the organic gardener.
- Diatomaceous Earth. This natural substance with a somewhat unwieldy name is made from a sedimentary rock created by fossilized algae (diatoms), and which is a rather abundant resource (diatomaceous earth is said to make up 26 percent of the earth's crust by weight).
- Garlic Spray. Garlic is well-known for its pungent aroma, which is delectable to some and yet repellent to others, and it is this strong scent that comes into play when used as a natural insecticide.
- Chile Pepper Spray. Similar to garlic spray, chile pepper spray is a great homemade natural insect repellent that can be used for a variety of different pests.
- All-in-One Homemade Spray. From the folks at Rodale's Organic Life comes this all-in-one DIY natural insecticide, which is said to be a combination of many different recipes submitted by readers.
- Tomato Leaf Spray. I have to admit that this one is new to me, but I've seen enough mentions of it now to warrant its inclusion here as a natural pesticide.
