Plant & Herbal Research of Ingredients:
Formula created with Our Farmed Lemon Eucalyptus Leaf
Lemon Eucalyptus Leaf (Corymbia citriodora) Extract:
It was discovered that Lemon Eucalyptus was far more effective at repelling mosquitoes than the essential oil itself. Lemon Eucalyptus Extract has a lower vapour pressure than volatile monoterpines found in most plant oils [22] and provides very high protection from a broad range of insect vectors over several hours [23], whereas the essential oil is ONLY repellent for around one hour [24].
Corymbia citriodora (Myrtaceae), also known as Lemon Eucalyptus, is a potent natural repellent extracted from the leaves of lemon eucalyptus trees (Table 1). It was discovered in the 1960s during mass screenings of plants used in Chinese traditional medicine. Lemon eucalyptus essential oil, comprising 85% citronellal, is used by cosmetic industries due to its fresh smell [21]. It was discovered that the Extract of of Lemon Eucalyptus was far more effective at repelling mosquitoes than the essential oil itself.
Many plant extracts and oils repel mosquitoes, with their effect lasting from several minutes to several hours (Table 1). Their active ingredients tend to be highly volatile, so although they are effective repellents for a short period after application, they rapidly evaporate leaving the user unprotected. The exception to this is Lemon Eucalyptus which has a lower vapour pressure than volatile monoterpines found in most plant oils [22] and provides very high protection from a broad range of insect vectors over several hours [23], whereas the essential oil is ONLY repellent for around one hour [24]. LE is the only plant-based repellent that has been advocated for use in disease endemic areas by the CDC (Centres for Disease Control) [25], due to its proven clinical efficacy to prevent malaria [26] and is considered to pose no risk to human health [27].

Journal of Medical Entomology - Repellency of Lemon Eucalyptus, Geranium, and Lavender and the Mosquito & Tick Repellent MyggA Natural to Ixodes ricinus (Acari: Ixodidae) in the Laboratory and Field > http://www.bioone.org/doi/abs/10.1603/0022-2585(2006)43[731:ROOOLE]2.0.CO;2
From The Study :
"Lemon Euacalyptus - C. citriodora was tested by the blanket-dragging technique for 4 d during a 6-d period. The repellencies (74 and 85%, respectively) on day 1 are similar (89%) to that of blankets treated in a similar manner with 19% diethyl-methyl-benzamide, based on previous work. Repellencies declined significantly from day 1 to day 6 (74 to 45% for MyggA Natural; 85 to 42% for C. citriodora oil)."

Bioactivity-Guided Investigation of Geranium Leaf as Natural Tick Repellent:
Study Conclusion:
``Therefore, effective compounds, such as (−)-10-epi-γ-eudesmol, found in Geranium Leaf, have the potential for commercial development for the reduction of disease spread by tick infection.``
