[nagdu] OMG the mosquitoes!

[Raven Tolliver]

I use lemon eucalyptus essential oil as a bug repellent. The Golden
Guy never gets bitten up despite his affinity for playing in the woods
and rolling in the grass, but I get bitten up so I apply the lemon
eucalyptus oil to myself, and it works great.
For the bites, I would use cold-pressed coconut oil to sooth and
lavender essential oil to stop the itch. Other than that, I would
leave them alone. They will go away on their own without being
bothered and fussed over.
