1000+ verified doctorsHow to Make a Natural Mosquito Repellent? - #48128
Hello. I was wondering if I could make a mosquito repellent, water based spry. You see, mosquitos love to bite me and I am going to Thailand, where their bite is dangerous. I have essential oils such as lavander and lemongrass and I was wondering if I could mix them both or one, with distilled water. This would be easy for me to use and not much oily. Thank you.
