How To Make A Natural Mosquito Repellent

Introduction

Step 1: Choosing Your Ingredients

• Choose Your Base Oil

The base oil is going to be the carrier of your other ingredients, so it’s important that you choose wisely. A good choice for this purpose is olive oil or coconut oil. These are both high-quality oils with a long shelf life and mild scent that won’t clash with any essential oils you choose to add later on in the process.

• Choose Essential Oils To Use In Your Recipe

Essential oils can make all the difference when it comes to how effective your homemade mosquito repellent recipe actually will be! There are several different types of essential oils out there, and each one has its own unique properties:

• Citronella (Cymbopogon nardus) – Repels mosquitoes by masking their sense of smell; also helps reduce stress levels during outdoor activities such as camping trips where bugs may plague visitors at nightfall!
• Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) – Contains antiviral properties which help prevent mosquito bites from becoming infected once they occur; also smells great while doing so!

Step 2: Mixing The Ingredients

Now you’re ready to mix your ingredients. Depending on what you are mixing, the process can be as simple as stirring by hand or using some tools such as a blender or food processor.

If any of the ingredients need to be heated up, this may require a stovetop or microwave. You should always use caution when dealing with heat sources, so please be careful when handling hot liquids and utensils!

Step 3: Making A Spray Bottle

Now that you have your ingredients, it’s time to start making the mosquito repellent spray. If you don’t have a spray bottle, go out and get one! You’ll also need a funnel, rubber band or piece of cloth, and clean towel or paper towel.

You can use any type of container as long as it has a cap on it—it just needs to be big enough to hold all of your liquid ingredients together. The picture below shows how I made my own natural mosquito repellent with what I had lying around my house: A small mason jar filled with water (which acts as the base), essential oils (which are added in small amounts), an empty lotion bottle with an opening at least 2 inches wide and 2 inches low (to allow for easy pouring), and finally some scentless dish detergent from my kitchen cabinet (to help dissolve everything).

Step 4: Storing The Repellent

Now that your repellent is ready, it’s time to store it.

Storing the Repellent

The best place to store an all-natural mosquito repellent is in a cool, dark place where it won’t be exposed to heat or air. The ideal temperature for storing your homemade mosquito spray is between 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius) and 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius). If you can’t keep your homemade spray in this temperature range, make sure you keep it in a refrigerator or freezer until use—but for safety reasons, don’t leave the bottle in there for more than two weeks at a time!

If you want to use the repellent right away, simply transfer it into an empty spray bottle and apply as needed. If you’re planning on storing some of the solution—for example, if there’s enough left over after making one batch—you can transfer some into smaller containers like mason jars and glass jars with lids while keeping the rest in its original container without transferring any excess liquid around again; just make sure they’re tightly sealed so nothing gets lost when opening them later on!

Tips and tricks to make your own mosquito spray

• Use a spray bottle to apply your natural mosquito repellent.
• Fresh ingredients are best, so try to use the ingredients at their freshest whenever possible.
• Don’t apply repellent to skin that is cut or irritated.
• Don’t spray repellent near food, as some ingredients may be toxic if ingested in high quantities.
• If you have sensitive skin, consider using an alcohol-based repellent instead of water-based ones (because alcohol evaporates faster).
