Tea tree

7. Tea tree

Tea tree oil is found in many items, from shampoos to soaps. Many people use it to help keep bugs out of their homes. This is an essential oil that is considered a versatile cleanser, so one of the most common oils in homemade cleaning products like wood polish. It is popular because it is regarded as an antimicrobial, antifungal, antiseptic, bactericidal, and insecticide agent. As with many cleaning solutions and essential oils, you don't want to leave the product in the paint environment or anywhere there is a high temperature because tea tree oil can change and make people sensitive to it.

In addition to being known as an insect repellent, it can also be used as a natural deodorant, fight acne, enhance wound healing, and is excellent for hand sanitizer, mouthwash—no chemicals, and nail fungus removal. Many people also use it to soothe the itch when bitten by a bed bug or eliminate and repel lice.
