Organic citronella essential oil is known as a plant-based insect repellent and bio-pesticide with non-toxic mode of action, and has been approved for this purpose in the US since 1948. The main producing countries for this oil are Indonesia and China, which together produce about 40% of the world’s citronella essential oil.

This oil is useful not only as an insect repellent for the skin, but also for excessive sweating, oily skin and hair, and as a deodorant. It is said to relieve pain from rheumatism and arthritis and help against flu, colds and mild infections. The oil is good for the digestive system to cure colitis and intestinal infections and get rid of intestinal parasites. It relieves menstrual cramps and pain and speeds up the heartbeat. When used in a vaporizer, it is known to dispel fatigue, headaches, and neuralgia, and provide a happy and optimistic mood. Do not use during pregnancy and in children under 3 years of age. Do not consume internally.

Ancient cultures in India, Egypt, and elsewhere where Cymbopogon grasses grew used them to repel insects, especially mosquitoes. At that time, people settled near rivers and water bodies. While this was a good thing in many ways, it also brought with it an abundance of insects, especially mosquitoes, which brought disease and killed people. Therefore, the use of this grass as a repellent was a matter of life and death at that time.
