Homemade Bug Repellant that smells good and works!           

 いい香りで簡単に作れるの虫除けスプレーのレシピ

Most bug sprays from the pharmacy contain all sorts of chemicals, including DEET. As with most chemicals that are added to products, it is highly toxic even in low concentrations. This means that they may not make us sick immediately, but over time these toxins build up in the body and make us ill.
These days, due to the raised awareness of the toxicity of DEET, there are a variety of natural bug sprays on the market. You can also make your own! It is surprising easy, effective, and a fun project to do with friends or kids. I like the mix of aromas in this one.
