Only took 60 seconds to eliminate that Tick. #natural #pestcontrol #outdoors #tick #diy

What happens here

Using your fingers or a dropper, carefully apply several drops of the natural repellent liquid around the tick on the white paper. The liquid, as indicated by the product shown later, is a blend primarily composed of Peppermint Oil, Thyme Oil, and Cinnamon Oil, along with inert ingredients like Water, Glycerin, Soap, Isopropyl alcohol, and Citric Acid. The goal is to create a wet boundary or small pools that the tick is likely to encounter.

Goal: Introduce the repellent into the tick's immediate environment for contact.

Okay, let him go. Let's see what he does. What we're testing is the Mosquito Nix natural combination of peppermint, thyme, and cinnamon oil. It's not meant to be an instant kill formula, but it's meant to be a natural deterrent for fleas, ticks, even the ones that carry alpha-gal and Lyme's disease. Plus, it gets rid of biting flies, mosquitoes, even wasps and hornets. But, let's watch what happens when one of these walks straight through it. >> like it.
