Now Peppermint Essential Oil, 4-Ounce

This stuff is the real deal. Amazingly powerful. my issue isn't mice, mine is german cockroaches, a sudden sighting led me to this product. After emptying, cleaning, and bleaching cupboards, pots, and pans discarding open foods, and vacuuming every inch of my kitchen, I have wiped a line across every entry point into rooms and cupboards. Not a single cockroach have I seen since. but for extra protection, each cupboard has about 5-6 cotton balls steeped in the oil sitting at the back. I then mixed some of the oil with water in a spray bottle and proceeded to douse my house in the stuff, walls, ceilings, and floor (be careful if you have lining or tiles, it gets slippery). Not only is it a great deterrent against many pests. it leaves the whole house smelling minty fresh... just gotta put up with slightly watery eyes... oh it also clears the sinuses. plus plus plus!!

This is the best peppermint oil ever. Nice and strong. A friend had some and you can smell it on her. Very beneficial, I even use it when I have a headache across my forehead and headache subsides. It just takes a small bit on a cotton ball and lasts for hours. This bottle is much larger than in the vitamin shop and cheaper.

Oh, what can I say about a product that I already absolutely love!! I was so excited about finding the Now Essential Oil in the Peppermint. The Peppermint oil is so very useful in so many different ways that it is just incredible. 1) The Peppermint Oil can be used in a diffuser to help make the entire house smell so bright, clean and like Christmas (for me that's the best). 2) You can take the Peppermint Oil and put a few drops in about 1 cup of baking soda and mix it up well so that it is blended (important) I put mine in an old candle jar and if needed in a couple days I stir it around a bit. Works very nicely. 3) When I have a headache that is turning into a migraine I put some behind my ears or on the side of my temples (be careful not to get it to close to your eyes (it is not pleasant at all if that happens). 4) I love to use my Now Essential Oil (the only one I know at the moment that is food safe) In my yummy Sour Cream Sugar Cookie frosting. The flavor of the peppermint makes them taste so good and after I have spent the time decorating them I want them to be incredible they are 5) Peppermint is an uplifting 100% pure oil and yes it does need a bit of diluting so please use it wisely and if you are not aware of the Essential oils ratio consult an Essential oils book. 6) I ordered the 4 oz bottle ( I didn't even know it came that big for private use) but, it does come in different sizes to meet your needs. I really hope that my review has helped you to want to purchase Now Essential Oils in the Peppermint, they also offer a wide variety of other oils that you will love. I do truly love this product or I would not give it the 5 star rating that it deserves. I want you to be as happy with a product as I am, and honesty is the best policy. Enjoy you Oils I do and have pleasant day. Dianna NOW Foods Essential Oils Peppermint -- 4 fl oz (118 ml)

NOW is a good brand. Have been purchasing essential oils from them for several years now. Well priced, good quality oils. Peppermint oil: I used it for bug bites/mosquito bites. It gets rid of itching and heals the bite faster. Also used it as ant/bug repellent. A few drops on cotton balls and leave cotton balls at ant entrance points. Also drizzle some dish soap and a few drops of this oil on a wet sponge and wipe countertops and tables with it. Even the most stubborn ants run away for about a day. At daily application they eventually stop coming back. Put a few drops of it in olive oil and rob it into the bottoms of my kid’s feet to lower fever. Love this oil. It does everything i want it to do. P.s. Information about bugs and ants here is for those living in the northern parts of the country. If you are living closer to the tropics, in say FL, peppermint oil is not strong enough to rid you of ghost ants (hardly visible, tiny gray ones). The only thing that works on them is TERRO T300B Liquid Ant Killer, 12 Bait Stations. Bug bites are also more severe near the tropics, so mint oil alone is not as affective. Wiping the bite with rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball before applying this oil works better. If you are going to add a few drops of oil into your warm water for washing surfaces, add about a Tbsp of white vinagre in as well. It will make the oil a lot more potent and stronger, but WARNING: if you’re going to do that, DO NOT touch the water with bare hands. It will irritate the skin and feel like your hands are burning. Use gloves. I use regular rubber gloves that nurses use at a hospital.
