Here's a Natural, Safe, Effective Ant Repellent You've Probably Never Heard Of!

Here's a Natural, Safe, Effective Ant Repellent You've Probably Never Heard Of!Nobody likes to find out an army of ants has been attacking their kitchen. And everyone is always on the look out for the right repellant. Unfortunately, most of these repellants contain harmful and toxic ingredients. But here's the good news: Eurospa has a solution that's natural, safe and totally effective. Want to know more? 
First of all, black ants are very persistent. That's why it's so discouraging to discover them in your home... they keep coming back!. Your efforts begin to feel futile. It is possible to exterminate ants by fumigating, but there are so many reasons to want to avoid doing this, one being that it's toxic for your health as well. Is there a more natural solution to an ant infestation? Luckily, the answer is yes.
Ants navigate their lives through their sense of smell. They spread out, look for food and the ones that find it bring the report back to rest, letting them know where to go - using their sense of smell. So isn't that great, that because ants are vulnerable to certain strong smells, you have the change to get rid of them just by throwing their senses off. 
Here comes the hero! Eucalyptus oil, with its strong scent, drives away ants by leaving them confused and unable to find food. Here's how you can use eucalyptus oil to keep the ants away!

Materials


Here's how you do it:
Instead of trying to kill each individual ant near your home, you want to prevent ants from even getting inside. So you need to figure out where the ants are getting in to house first. Usually, ants will form lines, so follow the line back to the start or entry point. However, this isn't always the case. If there is no line of ants to follow, you will simply have to look carefully for their entrance.

Next. 

Spray the area of entry generously, so the ants aren't able to avoid or get around the oil. You also want to figure out what food source attracted the ants, and spray the area around it, along with any other areas that you frequently find them. 

Not bad, right? At Eurospa, we love our eucalyptus essential oil and know you will too, whether you're using it for beauty, immune boosting, respiratory health, pain relief or even ants! Get you're own bottle and you'll see what we mean!

Don't Stress! Making Natural Cleaning Supplies at Home is Easy!


clean your home with non-toxic cleaning supplies you can make yourself easily and simply with baking soda, vinegar, tea tree oil and eucalyptus from Eurospa
You may think it takes too much time and effort to make your own natural cleaning supplies at home, but it's easier than you realize and studies show us that toxic, conventional cleaning supplies are bad or your health, your child's health and the health of the planet.  

The truth is, these recipes are simple and you will feel great peace of mind knowing that you are bettering the overall health of your home.  We've gathered the ingredients needed for you to make the most basic, natural multi-purpose cleaning supplies, quickly and convenient for your busy schedule. 

Ready for it?

Here's what you're going to need: 


  • baking soda
  • white vinegar
  • lemons
  • castille soap
  • essential oils (lemon, tea tree, lavender, thyme, eucalyptus & orange are all options)
  • spray bottles


For the Windows: For those that love vinegar, you're going to love this one. You just mix 3 tablespoons of vinegar with 2 cups of water into a spray bottle (bigger jobs - 1/2 cup V to 1 gal of H2O) and spray right on to your windows. Is this effective?  Yes. Does it smell good? No. If you can't handle the smell, a mix of lemon juice and club soda will do the trick just as well. Do make sure that if you use lemon juice, you use lint free cloth like newspaper to wipe them down with.  (you can also add a little lemon juice to the vinegar solution as well, just avoid pulp) 

All Purpose Germ Killer: This one is easy. Mix 2 cups of water with a few drops of castille soap and about 15 drops of your chosen essential oils. You can spray this on all kinds of surfaces in your home from changing tables  and fixtures to counter tops and walls. Just don't use it on glass, because the soap will make it streak.  Additionally, you can use our own Eucalyptus Shower Spray, not only to enrich your shower experience but also to cleanse the air by spraying it into the air and on to surfaces.

For the Toilets:  Everyone's favorite place to clean right?  This one is simple.  You can take some of the window cleaner you made (preferably with the lemon juice) and spray generously around and inside the toilet.  Then sprinkle some baking soda on top of it and let it sit for about 10 minutes.  Come back, scrub and watch it shine!

Prevent Mold: Mold is incredibly dangerous for you and your family and once it starts, it's extremely hard to get rid of!  So start with prevention.  Take a spray bottle with 2 cups of water and add about 5 drops of tea tree and thyme oil to the bottle.  Spray on walls, in closets, in bathrooms and behind furniture and then wipe down.  The anti-septic and anti-mircrobial nature of tea tree and eucalyptus oil will combat the mold before it really has a chance to take over. 

At Eurospa, your health is our priority.  We want you healthy on the inside and out.   We hope you enjoyed this list and would like to invite you to experience our Eucalyptus Shower Mist & Menthol Crystals for an even more enhanced, natural health experience!
