You are in an open space and need no repellent product for you or your family members or for your pets. You are considering a commercial product. The problem is: commercial repellent does not assure you the adequate protection. You need to see for yourself before you make the decision buying this or that repellent: some of them can act like nootkatone essential oil, some of them cannot. Nootkatone is often described as a natural bug repellent. It is an effective natural product that has been used for decades to control disease-carrying pests and to repel mosquitoes, as well as other insects.
Nootkatone Repellent
Introduction
Nootkatone is a natural chemical compound that repels ticks and mosquitoes. It is found in the rind of Alaska yellow cedar trees and in grapefruit, but it occurs in small amounts. Research has shown that even small amounts are effective at repelling ticks and mosquitoes for up to three weeks.
In a clinical trial conducted in the Northeast, a nootkatone repellent proved more effective than a popular commercial repellent against deer ticks, blacklegged ticks, and mosquitoes. The trial focused on a spray that had 10 percent nootkatone by weight sprayed on skin. This concentration was selected because human volunteers reported it was comfortable to wear and smelled like grapefruit.

Nootkatone is a natural insect repellent found in the rinds of yellow cedars. This ingredient could be used as an ingredient in repellents, but you’d need to be careful when making your own because it’s not always easy to find. Nootkatone repels ticks and mosquitoes, so it would be a good choice for someone who lives in an area with those insects.
The problem with nootkatone is that it’s not found in large quantities in grapefruit and small citrus trees. However, if you have these plants growing near where you live then they might help keep insects away from you too!
