The other day, Cass woke up with insect bite marks all over her body and limbs. She was scratching like crazy when she woke up in the morning. Poor girl, I think she must have been bitten by some bugs. I applied some Melaleuca oil on her body and sprayed some demand cs insecticide on the mattress. I hope that this managed to get rid of those pesky bugs. Poor Cass, she seems to be attracting a lot of mozzies and bugs to give her love bites all over her body and she has been asking me why these insects just love to bite her!
Lavender oil is also a great repellent for bugs. A few drops in water to spray on plants, or into the food composter bin on the kitchen counter (we compost fruits, vegt, meat, bones, even loaded diapers!). Have to learn to limit our garbage to 3 bags every 2 weeks!
