My most requested item in 2023 was to make an organic mosquito repellent, and it’s finally here! After sending her off to the world to be tested, this is what a trusty friend/customer had to say:
“Mosquitos were flying all overland landing on us. I sprayed it all over and I saw them trying too land and then they did a quick u-turn and flew away.”
Whoa!
There’s no deet in this product. In fact, it’s organic! So what’s the magic trick? Catnip (Nepeta cataria). I grow it organically here in my own herb garden and then make an extract using catnip along with several other herbs, including mint and lavender. The resulting product is one that smells just as good as it works.

This spray is made from herbs that we organically grew in our own garden, including Nepeta cataria (aka catnip). Recent studies have shown catnip to be just as effective DEET in repelling mosquitos and other insects.
