What Our Customers Think
Frequently Asked Questions About Peppermint Oil for Bugs
Can Peppermint Oil Keep Multiple Types of Bugs Away?
Yes! Peppermint oil has a powerful scent that many people use to help discourage a wide variety of bugs, including ants, spiders, and certain types of flying insects. Its refreshing aroma makes it a popular go-to for keeping indoor and outdoor spaces fresh and less inviting to bugs.
Does Peppermint Oil Kill Bugs or Just Deter Them?
Peppermint oil is not typically used as an insecticide. Instead, it works by creating a strong scent that many bugs dislike, which can help reduce their presence in treated areas.
How Often Do I Need to Reapply Peppermint Oil to Keep Bugs Away?
Reapplication every 2–3 days is usually recommended, especially in high-traffic areas or spots with frequent ventilation. You may need to refresh it more often outdoors or in warm weather.
Can Peppermint Oil Be Used in a Diffuser to Deter Bugs?
Absolutely. Many people use peppermint oil in essential oil diffusers as a natural option to keep their space fresh while helping create an environment bugs tend to avoid. It’s especially popular in kitchens, sunrooms, and near windows. Just be careful when diffusing any aromatic oil if you have any pets or children.
Will Peppermint Oil Stain Furniture or Fabric if Sprayed?
Pure peppermint oil is a concentrated oil, so it's best to dilute it with water or a carrier oil before spraying. Even then, it's a good idea to spot-test fabrics or finishes in an inconspicuous area before using it widely, just to be safe.
