Another West Nile Virus Protection

EClub member Michael Penn from Glastonbury, England (See Great Places To Be) is a holistic healer and shares this interesting note on how to protect against West Nile virus.

"Hi Gary, since you mentioned West Nile in your latest mail & this just arrived - in case it helps.

Natural oils can be used as a West Nile Mosquito repellent. Over half ofthe United States has been invaded by the West Nile Mosquito. The following is a natural alternative to the chemical sprays and other forms ofapplication as a repellent. I hope these are of benefit to you if you feel the need to protect yourselves from mosquitoes.

Lavender oil. Insects don't like the scent. Put in a spray bottle 1/3 Witch Hazel and 2/3 pure water, then add drops of Lavender (a pure essential oil) to thebottle. Amount depends on the size of the bottle. Shake well before eachapplication. They also dislike the smell of lemon and some other oils soyou can 'make up' your own personal lovely smelling insect repellent.This works on dogs and cats, too."

Our friend Candace Welsh has a business in Naples, Florida, Oil LadyAromatherapy, and is an excellent source of all natural oils.

An excellent article "Traveling with Essential oils for Health and Jet Lag"recently appeared in a Natural Awakening Article. I reached thru askjeeves.com by searching oil lady aromatherapy and it appear as number 5 under you may find my search resulthelpful. Her telephonenumber is 239-263-3451

Another good source is Darlene Bruns at Flower Power. Her email address is floweressences@yahoo.com

Until next message may all your health be good!
