Why Lemongrass Oil Belongs in Every Home
Lemongrass contains 60–80% citral — a compound with proven insect-repelling, anti-inflammatory, and antifungal properties. One oil, dozens of uses around the house and on the body.
Natural Mosquito & Insect Repellent
Lemongrass oil is one of the most effective natural insect repellents. Citral and geraniol — its key compounds — are proven to repel mosquitoes, flies, ants, and ticks. Diffuse indoors, spray diluted on skin, or apply around doorways and windows. A chemical-free alternative to DEET-based products, with a scent you’ll actually enjoy.
Muscle & Joint Pain Relief
Lemongrass oil’s anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties make it highly effective for sore muscles, joint stiffness, back pain, and sports injuries. Dilute with a carrier oil and massage into affected areas — the warming, penetrating action provides relief within minutes. A natural go-to for post-workout recovery and chronic joint discomfort.
Energy, Focus & Mood Lift
The bright, zesty citrus aroma is an instant mood lifter and mental sharpener. Diffuse while working to improve concentration and fight mental fatigue. Unlike caffeine, it energises without jitters or crashes. Lemongrass is the perfect morning or afternoon diffuser oil when you need to feel alert and motivated.
Antifungal & Skin Cleansing
Citral gives lemongrass powerful antifungal properties — effective against common skin fungi including those that cause ringworm, athlete’s foot, and fungal acne. It also helps reduce excess oil, minimise pores, and cleanse skin. Add to body wash or dilute with carrier oil for targeted skin care.
Headache & Stress Relief
Lemongrass oil helps ease tension headaches and stress-related discomfort. Apply diluted oil to the temples and back of the neck, or simply inhale from the bottle. The citrus aroma activates calming pathways while the anti-inflammatory compounds address physical tension. A lighter, fresher alternative to peppermint for headache relief.
Home Deodoriser & Purifier
One of the best essential oils for making your home smell clean and fresh. Lemongrass eliminates cooking odours, pet smells, and stale air. Its antibacterial properties also purify the air as it scents it. Add to DIY cleaning sprays, floor washes, or simply diffuse — far more effective and pleasant than synthetic air fresheners.
Three Ways to Use Lemongrass Oil
Mosquito Repellent Spray
Mix 15–20 drops with 100ml of water and a teaspoon of witch hazel or vodka (to help oil mix with water). Pour into a spray bottle. Spray on exposed skin before going outdoors, or spray around rooms, windows, and doorways. Reapply every 2–3 hours for continuous protection. Safe for the whole family when diluted properly.
Muscle & Joint Massage
Mix 4–5 drops with a tablespoon of coconut or sesame oil. Massage firmly into sore muscles, stiff joints, or areas of pain. The warming effect begins within minutes. For enhanced pain relief, combine with 2 drops of peppermint oil. Excellent for back pain, shoulder tension, knee stiffness, and post-exercise soreness.
Diffuse & Clean
Add 4–5 drops to your diffuser for an energising, fresh citrus atmosphere that also repels insects. For DIY cleaning: add 10 drops to 500ml of water with a splash of white vinegar — use as a kitchen counter spray, floor wash, or bathroom cleaner. Antibacterial, deodorising, and insect-repelling in one.

Common Questions
Both come from the Cymbopogon grass family, but they’re different species with different strengths. Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) is citral-dominant — it has a brighter, more pleasant lemon scent and stronger anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties. It’s versatile for body care, pain relief, and household use. Citronella (Cymbopogon nardus) is citronellal-dominant — it has a harsher, more herbaceous scent and is primarily used as an insect repellent. Lemongrass repels insects too, but also does much more — and smells far better doing it.
Yes — lemongrass oil contains citral and geraniol, both of which are recognised insect repellents. Multiple studies have confirmed its effectiveness against various mosquito species. It works best when diluted in a spray (15–20 drops per 100ml water with a dispersant) and reapplied every 2–3 hours. It’s not quite as long-lasting as DEET, but it’s chemical-free, pleasant-smelling, and safe for regular use. Diffusing indoors provides continuous room-level protection.
Never apply undiluted lemongrass oil directly to skin — it’s highly concentrated and can cause irritation or a burning sensation. Always dilute: 3–5 drops per tablespoon of carrier oil for body massage, or 15–20 drops per 100ml of water for a spray. Lemongrass has a higher skin sensitisation risk than some other oils, so always do a patch test first, especially if you have sensitive skin.
Caution is advised around pets. Lemongrass oil is generally considered toxic to cats — avoid diffusing in rooms where cats spend time, and never apply to a cat’s skin. For dogs, highly diluted lemongrass can be safe as an external flea/tick repellent, but consult your veterinarian first. Never let any pet ingest essential oils. If you have cats, consider diffusing only in well-ventilated rooms they can leave freely.
Absolutely — lemongrass oil is one of the best essential oils for natural cleaning. Its antibacterial and antifungal properties disinfect surfaces, while the fresh citrus scent deodorises. Add 10 drops to 500ml of water with a tablespoon of white vinegar for an all-purpose cleaner. Works brilliantly on kitchen counters, bathroom surfaces, and floors. It also repels ants and insects from treated areas — a triple benefit of clean, fresh, and pest-free.
The 30ml bottle contains approximately 600 drops. For diffusing (4–5 drops per session), it lasts 4–5 months of daily use. If used primarily for DIY sprays and cleaning (10–20 drops per batch), it lasts 2–3 months. The 120ml bottle is better value for households that use lemongrass for multiple purposes — repellent, cleaning, and aromatherapy. Shelf life is approximately 24 months stored in a cool, dark place.
