• Description

  Lemongrass is known as being a nice addition to outdoor sprays. It can be mixed in a blend to avoid insect bites but be careful because it is known to attract bees. In addition to helping reduce unwanted bacteria, microbes, or fungus, it is also known to help with minor pain and inflammation and may help with stress. It also uplifts and relaxes, assisting in both reducing fatigue and to energize the mind.
