Every weekend, my family goes to Go Green Organic Farm in Kam Sheung Road. In fact, my husband has been interviewed by South China Morning Post about our weekly organic farming activity. And we're proud to say that we are one of the first tenants in this farm. We love farming - and my daughter loves getting dirty and play with the farm animal.
The insects love me, my daughter, and my son (they avoid my husband, though). And we always end up getting bitten by mosquitoes and sandflies. And it's extremely itchy! We can't stop scratching! I'm avoiding anything with DEET. We tried the anti-mosquito patches and those bracelets, and they didn't work for us.
So I decided to make The Best Insect Repellent Spray - one that works with sandflies too!
The Best Insect Repellent Spray
Ingredients:
50 mL carrier oil (my suggestion: Hope 100% Organic Argan Oil - easily absorbed and for all skin types), or Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Mix all ingredients in a spray bottle. You can also use the dropper bottle. Apply liberally on skin. Reapply every four hours.
Tip:
To repel ants, moths, and cockroaches at home - stick self-adhesive felt pads (the ones used for chair legs for them to glide smoothly) around the source of the insects and their likely paths.
UPDATE: Here's a review from one of our lovely customers
If you have kids,then you will know how clumsy they can be. You will also know how hard it can be for you to stop them from getting into trouble all the time, and this is completely normal. Every parent goes through a phase like this, but if you want a solution then there are one or two things that you can do to make tears a thing of the past.
If you have kids who are incredibly active,then you will know how much they enjoy summer. You may find it hard to keep them indoorsthat you want to keep them on your sight. The main thing that youmustremember here is that allergies are at their worst during the summer and this is because of the pollen, freshly cut grass, and other triggers. If your kids are active and they have allergies then this can be a bad combination, but luckily, there are things that you can do to try and stop all of this.
Do you know that moulds can be found in clean bathrooms and kitchens too? Well this is because it thrives in moisture. Not to mention the high humidity in Hong Kong provides a good environment for moulds to grow. It’s important to fight mold as soon as you find it, because there are about 50 kinds of mould that are toxic to humans, plus it can cause damage to your house that’s very expensive to repair.
