It’s fruit fly season, at least in my neck of the woods. Here are a couple great ways to use your essential oils to keep them away.

BASIL, PEPPERMINT, EUCALYPTUS: These are a few of the essential oils that deter fruit flies. Placing these in muslin sacks, or tea bags and hanging them around the house will deter fruit flies.They can’t stand the smell.  Or add a couple drops of each oil on a cotton ball or pad and place around the areas where the fruit flies tend to gather.

Try diffusing 4 drops basil, 3 drops peppermint and 3 drops Eucalyptus
