Does Skeeter Beater Repel Ticks?
I get asked that question at this time each year. The answer is Yes! It does a thorough job of keeping ticks as well as other bugs away. Including mosquitos, of course. And works on animals as well as humans.
Here’s Why Skeeter Beater Works:
It includes 9 plus more oils that ticks hate. Here they are:
- Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca)- antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-parasitic, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory = anti-bug
- Eucalyptus – antimicrobial, powerful insect repellent
- Lemongrass – anti-fungal, anti-bug
- Rosemary – anti-infectious, antimicrobial, antiseptic, good for skin conditions = anti-bug
- Citronella – well known for insect-repelling
- Peppermint – Anti-parasitic, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral =hated by ticks
- Cedarwood – Anti-parasitic, anti-fungal, =hated by ticks
- Geranium – Antispasmodic, anti-oxidant, antibacterial = repels bugs
- Juniper – Good for dry skin, repellent to bugs
You can make your own combination to repel ticks and mosquitos this year. Or you can use our Skeeter Beater with peace of mind that you are well protected!
Make sure to take some Skeeter Beater with you when camping and hiking. Or just hanging out at the lake.
Your skin will thank you for it!
So will your animals.
Before our dog, Skipper, got too old, we loved to take him on hikes. Spraying with Skeeter Beater keeps dogs from attracting ticks that may be hiding in the bushes. A favorite here in Central Oregon.
