NATURAL BUG REPELLENTS
The following list is from the Herbal Academy, International School of Herbal Arts & Sciences. I plant some of these* next to my patio, but a bouquet on your table, some of the oils in a spray bottle or even some leaves rubbed between your hands can be helpful as well. I find it interesting to note that you often see geraniums hanging in pots on the porches of European homes to discourage insects.
