How do I make a homemade insect repellent using herbs

[ItzelBooker]

Sure thing! Here are three different ways you can whip up a homemade insect repellent using herbs:

**Essential Oil Blend**: Grab some essential oils like lavender, eucalyptus, and peppermint. Mix about 10-15 drops of each with a couple of tablespoons of a carrier oil like coconut or olive oil. Just slather it on your skin before heading outdoors, and those pesky bugs will be less likely to bother you!

**Herbal Infusion Spray**: Take some fresh herbs like rosemary, mint, and basil. Steep a handful of them in boiling water for about 30 minutes, then strain the mixture into a spray bottle. You can add a splash of witch hazel or apple cider vinegar for an extra kick. Just spray it on your skin and around your space to keep the bugs at bay!
