Know before you buy
Yes, this is a pesticide-free, plant-based formula, making it a safer alternative to traditional chemical insecticides. However, as with any essential oil-based product, it is best to keep pets and children out of the area until the spray has fully dried.
You will notice a strong, refreshing peppermint scent immediately after spraying. The aroma typically dissipates within a few hours, leaving behind a clean, natural fragrance rather than the chemical smell associated with standard bug sprays.
Yes, the formula is designed for both indoor and outdoor use. It is safe for most surfaces, but we recommend testing a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure the peppermint oil does not cause any discoloration on delicate fabrics or finishes.
This formula is designed primarily as a repellent, though the extra-strong peppermint oil concentration can be effective at eliminating many common household pests on contact. For best results, use it as a barrier treatment around entry points like windows, doors, and baseboards.
For indoor use, a single application typically lasts for several weeks. If you are using it outdoors, you may need to reapply more frequently, especially after rainfall or heavy watering, as the elements can wash away the natural oils.
