Natural insect repellent

The Bilovit insect repellent essential oil set is a carefully curated collection of three 100% natural oils, which together provide effective protection against a variety of insects. The set comprises three 10 ml bottles containing the following oils: cinnamon bark, lemon and lavender – each extracted using cold-pressing methods that preserve the full range of their natural insect-repelling properties.

These three oils have been selected deliberately – they form a synergistic blend, whose repellent effect is stronger than the sum of the effects of the individual ingredients. Cinnamon oil acts as a powerful repellent against ants and many other crawling insects, lemon oil effectively repels mosquitoes and midges, and lavender oil not only repels moths and other pests, but also soothes the effects of any bites.

Unlike chemical repellents, which often contain harmful substances and have an unpleasant smell, this natural blend of oils envelops you in a pleasant aroma, whilst creating an impenetrable barrier against unwanted insects. It is the perfect solution for use both at home, and when outdoors.

Z zakupionej kolekcji zdążyłem przetestować tylko lawendę. Zapach mniej intensywny niż z syntetyków, ale zdecydowanie milszy dla ludzkiego węchu. Reasumując, choć olejki Bilovit nie są najtańsze w porównaniu z chińką konkurencją, to te drugie pomimo zapewnień producenta, z 100 procentową pewnością nie są olejkami eterycznymi, dlatego biorę rozwód z chińczykami na rzecz marki Biolovit.
