Bedbugs Protocol

“Fighting Nature with Nature”
Essential Oil Protocol for Bed Bugs
Bed Bug Recipe – Bites – Spray – Diffuse

BED BUGS BUSTER PROTOCOL

WARNING: ONLY THERAPEUTIC-GRADE ESSENTIAL OILS WILL HAVE ANY IMPACT ON BEDBUGS. YOUNG LIVING ESSENTIAL OILS FROM THE AMAZON RAINFOREST SEEM TO BE THE MOST EFFECTIVE.

Bedbugs

What do bedbugs look like – see the photo to the left here. Since the recent outbreak of bedbug infestation, many remedies have been tried with little to no success in destroying eggs. After World War II, the problem of bed bugs virtually disappeared from America. Specifically, because the action was taken using DDT. But DDT was a deadly carcinogenic that destroyed the soil and everything else. It has been outlawed in the USA.

Essential Oil lovers prefer the Eco-friendly approach.

Research shows that tree oils work best against parasites and menacing insects. Gary Young touts the praises of Palo Santo oil as the first choice for insect repellent. This Ecuadoran tree develops a resin to protect against bug bites. Specifically, it is from the resin that Young Living distills the Palo Santo oil. Eucalyptus has been used throughout history for bed bugs. Eucalyptus Blue is the first anti-viral Eucalyptus Oil. Native American Indians relied on pine needles and Cedarwood chips in their mattresses to ward off ticks and fleas. So, let’s consider a natural approach to attack bed bugs at home and on vacation.

Bed Bug Bites

Bed bug bites do not usually require treatment. Kill live bedbugs. If a secondary infection occurs (usually from scratching), apply Rose Ointment. Add an extra drop of Melrose in a dab of Thieves oil and apply Thieves oil around the infection. If open not directly into the sore. Take Thieves in a capsule, or use Inner Defense softgels. In these more severe cases, you may need to see your health practitioner.

Bedbug or Imposter?

Don’t assume your bites are bedbugs. Bites can be hard to identify, even for doctors. Rule out mosquitoes, fleas, mites, and biting gnats by visual inspection. Beds are where bedbugs hide. Bedbugs travel. Have you clarified that you do not have Morgellons? Be sure to rule out Morgellons Disease.

CLICK HERE for Morgellons disease information.

It’s best to collect and identify bedbugs to confirm bites. Look for the bugs or their bloodstains. Especially look closely along the seams of mattresses. Further, look for dark spots of insect waste where bedbugs might crawl into hiding places on furniture, walls, and floors. Wash clothing and bedding in hot water and then again in hot water that will not burn a finger added 1 cap full of Thieves Cleaner and 6 drops of Purification Oil Blend.

Bite Back Against Bedbugs

Get rid of infested mattresses and box springs or cover them with a plastic mattress bag to trap the bugs. Where do bedbugs come from – wash clothes and bedding in hot water, and dry them on high heat. Clean furniture and vacuum cracks in wood floors and doors where bugs may hide. Shake out suitcases. Use your thieves spray and thieves cleaner the cracks of floors or bed frames.

Grapefruit | Jade Lemon | Lemon

Lime | Orange | Tangerine | Citrus Fresh Blend

Are you looking for a fresh clean scent? Which essential oil do you reach for? The citrus essential oils, of course!

Citrus oils are among the favorites in any essential oil collection.

They are versatile and effective, plus they smell so good! The most popular citrus oils in aromatherapy today are lemon, grapefruit, lime, orange, and bergamot essential oil. Use any of these oils in your diffuser of choice to transform the aroma in your home.

Citrus Oils make us Happy!

Compare Essential Oil Companies

Compare Essential Oil Companies

Compare essential oil companies. Let’s look at a variety of variables that will help YOU choose the best company to buy your essential oils from. Disclaimer: I have used essential oils for my personal use for over 20 years. I personally prefer Young Living’s line of therapeutic-grade oils. I have personally used them for my health, aromas, perfume, laundry, house cleaning, and personal care items; such as soap, shampoo, and toothpaste. This is just the shortlist of comparisons.

Compare the companies in this chart that I created to share my thoughts about the essential oils company history.

Companies Established Distillery House Owns Farms Quality Plants, Cultivates, Harvest, Distills

Young Living 1991 YES YES YLTG YES

doTerra 2008 NO NO NO NO

Mountain Rose Herbs 1987 NO NO NO NO

AuraCacia 1982 NO NO 100% Pure NO

You may ask yourself, why do any of these items on this chart mean or matter?

What’s so important about that? If you have ever been a farmer or worked on a farm. You may already know the genuine reason for farming your plants from start to finish. Farmers know what the difference is. When you control the process from seed to seal, you know the products that you have in your hand.

Young Living controls its product right from start.

Young Living Essential Oil Company plants the seeds that the oils will be derived from. They also cultivate, harvest, and distill many of their essential oils. This is done right at our very own farms around the world. This is the unique ability to verify Young Living’s Seed to Seal Process. When you can have the opportunity to verify quality standards at every step of the process, you know that you have a therapeutic-grade essential oil.

Compare Facts: Young Living is also one of the most expensive essential oils you’ll ever buy.

Now you know why. Quality is NOT cheap. Young Living quality standards, production ethics, and company structure are worth it to you. However, if you would like to compare, please read on.

dōTERRA Stole Young Living Trade Secrets

Let’s chat about dōTERRA. This company began in 2008, with former Young Living administrators. These doterra owners had worked side by side with Gary Young, the founder of Young Living. Some had worked with Gary for upwards of 10 years.

doTerra started by STEALING everything

To get started from their former employer, Young Living. Formulas, member databases, and many trade secrets of Young Living were stolen by the doterra co-founders Emily Wright, Dr. David Sterling, and Justin Harris. David Sterling was the Medical Director at Young Living’s clinic in Utah for a few years. Emily Wright was Gary’s personal assistant for 10 years. Justin Harris was the Western regional director. I knew them all. This trio of “bandits” even called all the herb companies that Gary had REJECTED. These are clearly second-rate oils that doterra sells. I used to get calls from them all the time. My name was on their database that they stole too.

If Karma is part of your lifestyle, I would steer clear of doTerra

They just leave a very bad taste in my mouth. Just my 2 cents. Read more: doterra Report

Compare Truth is Truth

If you want to read a brief compilation of history and compare facts check this out: Young Living Difference. I hope to not offend anyone. I simply just educate and share the truth. Ingesting poorly created oils can pose many health problems. Utilizing pure oils is the best way to stay healthy. I have used Young Living oils for over 20 years. I truly believe that Young Living essential oils are one of the best authentic essential oil brands. Great company and products.

Top 10 Oils for Pest Control

How to Use Oils for Pest Control

As Young Living distributors, we don’t need poisons to kill pests. We can use oils for pest control. Oils repel them (and even sometimes kill them) with substances that are not only harmless to us but are actually healthful to us. see below, for a list of oils that will solve most of your pest problems around the house.

ESSENTIAL OILS FOR THINGS THAT BUG YOU AROUND THE HOUSE By David Stewart, PH.D., R.A.

Among the many chemicals in our industrial environment that get into our systems and make us sick are the pesticides we use in our homes. We use them because they are toxic to the creatures that bug us, but they are also toxic to us. Sometimes the toxicity is immediately apparent: we get a headache, get sick, or feel nauseous from the fumes or other contact.

Sometimes the toxicity is subtle and can accumulate resulting in chronic complaints and disorders that can be serious and even deadly over time. Sometimes we even put poisons on our pets to deal with ticks and fleas, not realizing that these substances are not healthy for us or our animals.

And how do you use the oils?

One way is to get a pistol-grip squirt bottle. Mix a few drops of the oil with some water, shake it up, and start firing. If you have bugs on your plants, like aphids on your roses, you can squirt the leaves and drive the bugs away with no harm to your plant. You can do the same with the other pests. As for ants, you can smear a line of peppermint or spearmint across your kitchen counter or floor and the ants won’t cross it. If you already have a line of ants invading your house, just draw a line of oil across them and they will turn back. It is fun to watch. And as for flies, you can knock them dead right out of the air with one shot from your pistol grip.

How to use essential oils for pest control

ANTS – Peppermint, Spearmint
APHIDS – Cedarwood, Hyssop, Peppermint, Spearmint
BEETLES – Peppermint, Thyme
CATERPILLARS – Spearmint, Peppermint
CHIGGERS – Lavender, Lemongrass, Sage, Thyme
CUTWORM – Thyme, Sage
FLEAS – Peppermint, Lemongrass, Spearmint Lavender
FLIES – Lavender, Peppermint, Rosemary, Sage
GNATS – Patchouli, Spearmint
LICE – Cedarwood, Peppermint, Spearmint

MICE: Essential oils for pest control mice – Lavender
MOSQUITOES – Lavender, Lemongrass
MOTHS – Cedarwood, Hyssop, Lavender, Peppermint, Spearmint
PLANT LICE – Peppermint, Spearmint
SLUGS – Cedarwood, Hyssop, Pine
SNAILS – Cedarwood, Pine, Patchouli
SPIDERS – Peppermint, Spearmint
TICKS – Lavender, Lemongrass, Sage, Thyme
WEEVILS – Cedarwood, Patchouli, Sandalwood

A Brown Recluse Experiment

Seeing how squirting a peppermint-water spray would kill flies in mid-air, I wondered what pure oil would do. So I did an experiment on a brown recluse spider. I captured a live one in a jar and carefully placed one drop of peppermint on one side. The pure peppermint repelled the spider who crowded to the other side to avoid the oil. When I tipped the jar to force the spider to fall into the oil, it merely squirmed and got away, still repelled by the oil, but not apparently harmed. Then I put a drop of water with the oil and tipped the jar so that the spider slid into the water and oil together and, instantly, it shriveled up dead.

Conclusion:

The oil alone is an insect repellant.
Combined with water, it is an insecticide.

Safe Insect Repellants for Pest Control

As far as repellants go, when you go into the woods and fields, put a little lavender around your ankles, wrists, and waist-band and you won’t have to worry about chiggers or ticks (or Lyme Disease or Rocky Mountain Spotted Tick Fever). Lemongrass, sage, or thyme would work, too, but might irritate your skin so put it on your pant cuffs and shirt sleeves.

Essential oils for pest control in Garden

Safe For Pets

As for your pets, you can put oils such as Purification, around their necks and backs, but watch to keep oils from around their eyes.
So there you have it. Non-toxic pest control.

Respiratory Support Essential Oils

Respiratory Support

Gary Young Young Living Founder

D. Gary Young – Young Living Essential Oils Founder

Summary
D. Gary Young was born on July 11, 1949, and passed on May 12, 2018, at the age of 68. He was the founder and president of Young Living Essential Oils, which was established in 1989. He was also the founder of The D. Gary Young Foundation, a nonprofit charity that lends aid to underprivileged people and communities worldwide. He has researched and studied alternative medicines and is considered a leading innovator in the health benefits of essential oils. He leaves behind a legacy like no other.

Early Life
Gary Young-ProfileClip
In 1973, Gary Young was working as a logger when he sustained an injury that crippled his legs and left him comatose for four months. After coming out of his coma, doctors told Gary that he would never walk again.

Travels

For several years following his injury, D. Gary Young traveled throughout the United States, Europe, the Middle East, India, and Pakistan, to find answers that would allow his body to heal and ease the pain in his legs. Gary discovered certain plants contained healing properties. He has researched different methods of natural healing, such as naturopathy and herbology. He found that certain plants concentrated in the form of essential oils work very well for his healing regimen. Gary Young discovered that many commercial grades essential oils were diluted or contained additional chemicals that limited their purity and effectiveness. He embarked on a personal journey to harness the full potential of essential oils from seed selection, crop management, and harvesting to the distillation process.

Practice

After his travels and studies in 1982, Gary opened a family practice clinic in Chula Vista, California, and a research facility to develop and refine natural healing techniques in Rosarito Beach, Mexico.

The First Young Living Farm

distill-oil Knowing that many commercial-grade oils are altered by the addition of synthetic materials, Gary decided in 1989 to purchase and farm a quarter-acre lot in Spokane, Washington. The farm was used to harvest and distill lavender and other herbs in a way that would harness the total purity of the essential oils. The farm became the first of many living laboratories for refining the growth and processing of essential oils. Gary Young built his first distiller by welding two pressure cookers with the swan neck of copper tubing. In 1993, Gary Young developed a proprietary process that preserved the highest level of integrity and purity of essential oils. He designed and built the largest and most technologically advanced distillery in North America at the time for the distillation and production of the first 100 percent pure therapeutic-grade essential oils, a term coined by Young for defining the essential oils he grows and distills.

Young Living Essential Oils Company

Young Living Essential Oils

D. Gary Young and his wife, Mary, created the Young Living Essential Oil company in 1989. Since then, it has become a world leader in essential oils sold throughout the world, including Canada, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Young Living Essential Oils products are not sold in retail stores. The company utilizes relationship marketing as its model for driving sales and promoting its products.

Gary Young launched The D. Gary Young Foundation: Young Living Outreach, which supports philanthropic causes worldwide, including the Cinterandes Foundation and its own Chongon School Project.

Young Living Therapeutic Grade

Anyone Can Claim to Be Therapeutic Grade.
Only Young Living Can Claim Young Living Therapeutic Grade™

Young Living Therapeutic Grade (YLTG)

The process Young Living uses when planting, cultivating, harvesting, and distilling a batch of oil is crucial to retaining its vital compounds. Without the exact blend of naturally-occurring plant chemicals, the essential oil can lose its beneficial properties and fail to produce the desired effect. Young Living Therapeutic Grade (YLTG) means that every essential oil Young Living distills or sources has the optimal naturally-occurring blend of constituents to maximize the desired effect. Young Living is able to make this assertion because of our strict cultivation process—illustrated by the Four Ps — that guarantees the optimal potency of every Young Living oil.

Plants * Preparation * Purity * Potency

Plants

An oil’s potency can be affected not only by selecting the proper plant to cultivate, but also by where the plant is grown, the quality of the soil in which the seed is planted, and even the time of day it’s harvested. Young Living Therapeutic Grade proves extensive experience in selecting the correct species of plant for desired oil potency, planting under optimal conditions, using ideal soil and natural methods to encourage growth, and knowing the precise time to harvest each crop. Only those plants that produce the most active and widest array of therapeutic compounds are selected.

Preparation

Once the optimal soil, plant, cultivation, and harvesting conditions have been adhered to, the plants must be distilled properly in order to meet Young Living Therapeutic Grade standards. Young Living uses a gentle, proprietary technique for steam extracting the most potent essential oils, which remains unmatched throughout the essential oils industry. To meet Young Living Therapeutic Grade distillation standards proper temperature must be maintained throughout the distillation process, and pressure, length of time, equipment, and batch size are strictly monitored.

Purity

Young Living Therapeutic Grade standards prohibit the acceptance of any diluted, cut, or adulterated oils. Every product Young Living produces—essential oils, oil blends, nutritional supplements, or personal care—meets strict purity standards. Every batch of essential oils is subjected to rigorous, state-of-the-art analysis at the Young Living chemistry lab. Using some of the most advanced equipment in the world, our scientists subject every batch of essential oils to Gas chromatography Mass Spectrometer testing, and heavy metals analysis. Oils that exhibit even the slightest hint of possible adulteration or tampering are rejected.

Potency

The culmination of the preceding three stages, Potency means that the naturally occurring compounds contained in each essential oil product are of the highest and most consistent bioactive levels. Without strict adherence to the Young Living Therapeutic Grade standard in the Plant, Preparation, and Purity phases, the final product would not have the necessary potency to create the desired effect.
