Keeping Insects At Bay - the natural way

 

Commercial insect repellents contain many synthetic ingredients, together with CFC gases that can harm the environment and pollute the air that we (and our precious guineas) breathe.  There is now more demand for natural products, so we've come up with a formula to keep insect "nasties" at bay.  It is made from pure essential oils and Neem Oil.  

 

Buzz Off Concentrate

 

Essential Oils are not about killing insects, but they do work well as a deterrent to stop them entering or staying in your living space.  

 

Buzz Off comes as a concentrate that will make up 1 litre of spray.

You will need:

 A 500ml plant spray bottle (available from local DIY store / supermarket)

25ml of the concentrate

500ml water

 

Shake well after adding the concentrate to the water and spray liberally around the area in which your guinea lives.  It is economical to use and flies etc don't seem to hang around very long!

 

When cleaning your guinea's cage, it is safe to give their cage a couple of sprays, but you must ensure that you leave 30 minutes after spraying before putting your guineas back in the cage.

 

DO NOT SPRAY DIRECTLY ON OR NEAR YOUR GUINEA, OR ON POLISHED SURFACES.

DO NOT USE ON OR NEAR PREGNANT SOWS.  

DO NOT USE ESSENTIAL OIL PRODUCTS ON OR AROUND CATS - THEY CAN BE FATAL.

 

Available in a 50ml bottle.

 


Comments from a happy customer: "I have to tell you I think your Buzz Off is brilliant. Since receiving it I haven't had a single earwig in Cavy Cottage. Before they were in the cages and the Megazorb... Yuk. An absolute winner. Wendi."

 


Bugs Be Gone Powder   

 

Discover the natural way to say goodbye to Fleas, Mites and other insect nasties. Safe to use on all mammalian and bird species.  Useful for all skin conditions.

 

No nasty chemicals - this powder is 100% natural and comes from the Neem tree that contains many unique compounds to control pests. We know of no other effective treatment for pests that is so friendly to the skin.

 

This powder can be sprinkled lightly along the back and massaged in.  It  can also be sprinkled lightly on pet bedding / hutches / cages / litter trays to keep pests away, used in sand baths for chinchillas, or for rabbits to help prevent flystrike.

 

PLEASE NOTE: Where there are Mange Mites that live under the skin, your guinea will need treating promptly with Ivomec by your Vet.  BBG is more for use as a deterrent for surface parasites. MANGE MITES CAN KILL.

 

DO NOT USE ON PREGNANT SOWS.

 

Available in a 100ml shaker-top bottle.
