Who better to explain more about this amazing blend than Dr. Pappas himself:
"I created this blend based on all the latest scientific research and believe it to be the most effective blend of its kind. The key active oils are Eucalyptus Citriodora ct. p-menthane diol Oil, Nootka Wood Oil, Catnip Oil, Arborvitae (Western Red Cedar) Oil, and Texas Cedarwood oil. The p-menthane diol (from the special chemotype of Eucalyptus citriodora), nootkatone (from nootka tree) and nepetalactone (from catnip) are the most powerful natural mosquito repellent components in the world. Nepetalactone is also a super powerful tick repellent and will kill ticks on contact in addition to being extremely effective against lice. Methyl thujate (from Arborvitae) and cedrol (from Texas Cedarwood) are good for repelling other types of insects including bedbugs, mites, gnats, flies, and many others.”

It's nit season at my kids school again so I bought it for that, at the same time I could've sworn the animals bought in fleas I had itchy ankles, so I put some of the blend in a cheaper version of bio oil and sprayed it on my ankles. Immediately the itching was gone and I didn't get further bites at night. Its quite strong and woody smelling but very effective, I'll be using this alot in summer. I put a couple of drops in that oil in my hair to get rid of the nits as well. Well worth the purchase.
