Sandalwood is an insect repellant. Combined with water, it becomes an insecticide.
Safe Insect Repellents
Put a little lavender around ankles, wrists, and waist-band to repell chiggers or ticks (or Lyme Disease of Rocky Mountain Spotted Tick Fever). Lemongrass, sage or thyme might irritate your skin so put it on your pant cuffs and shirt sleeves.
For Pets, put Purification, around neck and back, taking care to avoid getting oils in your pets eyes.
