Hi, I'm Holly! I share how to use a Florida native beautyberry plant to make an effective bug repellent. 🦟 Beautyberry can be found in many states as a native plant. They are often mistaken for weeds. These plants have been used for hundreds of years for many natural remedies. What is the best homemade bug spray? I think I have found it with this easy recipe. How do you make homemade mosquito spray? This 3 ingredient recipe works great.

One of the remedies is an effective natural bug and mosquito repellent. A few ingredients will provide natural bug repellent for the whole family. I use alcohol or witch hazel. You may find another carrier that works best for your family and natural choices. The repellent is in the leaves of the beautyberry. Alternatively, you can crush the leaf and rub it on your skin.

This recipe has worked for us in Florida 🦩 and has also been effective for sand fleas. The results are from my own experience and those who have used the spray I made. Make the right choice for your family with the ingredients.
