Thank you both for your welcome.
I'm not doing citronella but I'm big on Menthol crystals. I've learned you can kill the bugs externally this way. I do a lot of isolating clothes and books in large plastic bins, burning the menthol crystals overnight, then leaving them for another day in the "debugging chamber" before removing. It works.
Does vinegar really kill them? I assume you mean to use it externally.
I do use Dr. Bonners peppermint soap in the bath sometimes and as an additive to my laundry. I generally use a different essential oil in the tub each night. To keep those suckers uncomfortable.
Are you using the citronella and peppermint in the bath? I'm assuming you are talking about essential oils here, correct? |
