Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


My inside cat got outside and did not come back for 2 days. When he did come back home, he brought home a case of fleas.

I got out my essential oils reference book and found out that Eucalyptus oil would control the fleas. Sure enough, after 2 applications of 1 drop each on the back of his neck, he is flea free.

So now each week I put 1 drop of Eucalyptus on him and he has been clean all summer. No more scratching at himself at all.

This will always be my treatment and no need to buy the toxic chemicals at the vets.
