Help us save the honeybees and raise the awareness of dangers of DEET and other pesticides!

Hudson Valley is our home and also a home to gazillions of beautiful creatures like honeybees and butterflies. Being mindful of the environment is one of the core principles of everything we do at Duncan Avenue. That’s why this Summer DA Aromatherapy Collection and Woodland Trails Natural Bug Repellents are running a campaign to raise awareness of dangers of DEET and other pesticides.

One of the most important aspects of using a natural tick and mosquito repellent like DA Aromatherapy’s Woodland Trails Natural Bug Spray is that it does not contain DEET or any other chemically produced pesticides that might harm honeybees.

As a nation we are waking up to understanding that harmful chemicals, pesticides, and DEET are not good for our health and the environment, but what are the alternatives to combat tick and mosquito bites naturally? “Although tick repellents and pesticides for use on skin, clothing, or in the yard are considered safe and effective when used as directed, many people are reluctant to use them”, said CDC.

DA Aromatherapy Collection of Cornwall on Hudson, New York, has created a powerful Woodland Trails™ blend of Organic Lemongrass, Rosemary, Eucalyptus, Cedarwood, Clove Bud and Lavender Essential Oils that is proven to repel deer ticks and mosquitos and avoid tick-borne diseases and infections. According to CDC, Mixed Essential Oils (rosemary, lemongrass, cedar, peppermint, thyme, and geraniol) are effective against Ticks (black-legged tick) and prevention of Lyme disease.

DA Aromatherapy’s Woodland Trails™ Essential Oils Blend is available in these natural and convenient applications:

• Woodland Trails™ Natural Bug Spray and Insect Repellent
• Natural Tick and Mosquito Repellent Spray for Humans and Pets (Travel Size)

Our favorite aromatherapy Woodland Trails™ body spray is now formulated to do much more than add a beautiful fragrance. We have packed an extraordinary amount of organic essential oils in variations of sizes to fit every need and lifestyle. Just look for any product fragrant with our signature Woodland Trails™ blend and know you will be protected. And because we use only natural ingredients our bug sprays are perfect and safe to use on puppies and other pets exposed to the outdoor bug threats.

This Summer we are doing more to raise the awareness of dangers of DEET and its effect on good insects like honeybees and butterflies. We are starting a poster campaign “Thank You from Woodland Trails” that we will distribute around the Hudson Valley at parks and hiking trails and we need your help as well!

Simply right click and save one of the “Thank You” images below and share it on your instagram, twitter, facebook and pinterest with a hashtag #savethebees

Together we can change the old school thinking that chemicals are the answer to our problems and move towards healthier, happier and safer planet Earth!
