All-Natural Rose Geranium Tick Repellent Spray

Introducing Starr Mountain Apothecary's 100% all-natural Rose Geranium Tick Repellent Spray!

Handcrafted with organic catnip and cinnamon basil infused organic apple cider vinegar and distilled water with rose geranium essential oil, it is both highly effective and smells amazing!

Rose geranium oil prevents ticks from detecting your presence by leveraging its potent constituents like geraniol and citronellol. A tick’s front legs possess organs that perceive odor, carbon dioxide, temperature, and movement. These structures tell a tick you’re approaching. However, rose geranium oil masks your human scent! It can also be used to repel fleas.

For dogs, rose geranium oil is highly effective when applied to areas where ticks are likely to attach, such as around the ears and on the collar. However, it is crucial to avoid direct application to a dog's nose or eyes.

The oil’s pleasant scent is an added bonus, making it a user-friendly option for pet owners. Regular reapplication is necessary for both humans and dogs to maintain its repellent properties, especially during peak tick activity times.

While generally safe, it's recommended to perform a patch test to check for any allergic reactions before widespread use on both humans and pets.

A 2013 study in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry found that rose geranium oil repels ticks with 90 percent effectiveness.
