Product Overview

OilGrow Bug Shield (10ml) is a 100% pure, natural essential oil blend specifically formulated to act as a powerful insect repellent. Unlike synthetic repellents containing DEET, Bug Shield uses a synergistic combination of plant extracts to discourage mosquitoes, flies, ticks, and other biting insects. In South Africa, OilGrow is highly regarded for its commitment to high-quality, therapeutic-grade oils, making this blend a favorite for families looking for a chemical-free way to enjoy the outdoors.

What the Product Is Used For

  • Insect Repellent: Naturally deters mosquitoes, gnats, and midges (no-see-ums).
  • Tick Prevention: Helps discourage ticks from latching during hikes or walks in long grass.
  • Air Purification: When diffused, it helps clear the immediate environment of flying insects.
  • Camping & Outdoor Activities: An essential companion for braais, camping trips, and sunset sundowners.
  • Post-Bite Soothing: The anti-inflammatory properties of the constituent oils can help reduce the itchiness of existing bites.

Key Benefits

  • 100% Pure Essential Oils: Contains no synthetic fragrances, fillers, or harmful chemicals.
  • Synergistic Blend: Combines multiple insect-repelling oils, ensuring a broader spectrum of protection against different bug types.
  • Safe for Environment: Biodegradable and non-toxic to aquatic life, unlike many chemical sprays.
  • Aromatherapeutic: The blend has a refreshing, herbaceous, and citrusy scent that is pleasant for humans but repulsive to insects.
  • Therapeutic Grade: OilGrow ensures the oils are sourced and distilled to maintain their full medicinal potency.

Active Ingredients

Bug Shield typically features a proprietary blend of:

  • Citronella Oil: The most famous natural insect repellent, effective against mosquitoes.
  • Lemongrass Oil: High in citral and geraniol, which are highly effective at masking scents that attract bugs.
  • Peppermint Oil: Provides a cooling sensation and is particularly effective at deterring spiders and ants.
  • Rosemary Oil: Acts as a natural preservative and repels flies and certain types of ticks.
  • Lavender Oil: Adds a soothing note and helps repel moths and flies.

Quantity / Size

  • Pack size: 10 ml.
  • Format: Concentrated essential oil blend in an amber glass dropper bottle.
  • Manufacturer: OilGrow (South Africa).

Usage Instructions

  • Diffusing: Add 5 to 8 drops to a water-based diffuser to clear a room or patio area.
  • Topical Application: Must be diluted. Mix 3 to 5 drops with 10ml of a carrier oil (like Coconut, Almond, or Grapeseed oil) and apply to exposed skin.
  • Spray Mist: Mix 20 drops with 50ml of distilled water and a splash of witch hazel in a spray bottle for a natural body or room spray.
  • Clothing: Apply a drop to shoelaces or hat brims to help deter ticks and flies without direct skin contact.

Warnings / Safety Information

  • Do Not Use Undiluted: Never apply pure essential oils directly to the skin, as this can cause severe irritation or sensitization.
  • Photosensitivity: Due to citrus components, avoid direct sunlight on treated skin for at least 12 hours after topical application.
  • Children: Use extra caution (and higher dilution) for children under 6 years. Consult a practitioner for infants.
  • Pets: Some essential oils are toxic to cats and dogs; do not diffuse in small, unventilated spaces where pets are present.
  • Pregnancy: Consult your healthcare provider before use.

Storage Instructions

Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. The amber glass protects the volatile oils from UV degradation. Ensure the lid is tightened immediately after use to prevent evaporation. Keep out of reach of children.
