Learn all about Citronella Essential Oil

Citronella essential oil is extracted from the grass plant Cymbopogon, native to Asia. It's commonly known as lemongrass. This fragrant grass plant got its name from the French word meaning "lemon balm" due to its fresh citrus-like aroma.

For centuries, Citronella was used in China and Indonesia as a natural remedy for treating several health conditions, such as rashes, infections, inflammation, and others. They also used it as a flavoring ingredient in their foods. Today, Citronella continues to be valued and used for its many properties.

Citronella has been registered as an insect repellent in the US since 1948. The EPA has classified Citronella as a non-toxic natural pesticide. Citronella is effective in repelling the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which transmits dengue fever. It may be effective against lice of the body and hair.

But this aromatic grass plant is more than a natural insect repellent. Citronella Oil has cleansing, disinfecting, deodorizing, and freshening properties. When inhaled, Citronella's energizing scent lifts moods and relaxes the body and mind, promoting happy and positive feelings. It is known to reduce muscle spasms, ease headaches, and boost energy. When applied topically, it can be soothing to the skin and scalp.

Citronella has a potent antifungal effect and contains the chemicals citronellal, citronellol, and geraniol. It can calm dogs that are barking and can deter pets from damaging items in the home. Also, these components are great for cleaning and disinfecting surfaces in the house.

Potential uses of Citronella oil:

Natural insect repellent
Lifts moods and reduces stress
Boosts energy
Soothes skin and scalp
Cleans and disinfect surfaces

Studies and Trials for Citronella Essential Oil

"Applicability of citronella oil (Cymbopogon winteratus) for the prevention of mosquito-borne diseases in the rural area of Tikapur, far-western Nepal."

Mosquito-borne diseases are a serious global problem, particularly in tropical and sub-tropical countries such as Nepal. Citronella oil is a natural mosquito repellent as well as a local fragrance in Nepal, which is accessible at very low cost because citronella plants are widely cultivated in rural areas of the Terai belt in Nepal. This study was conducted using a real-life randomized controlled pilot trial to confirm the effectiveness and applicability of locally-produced citronella oil as a mosquito repellent for the prevention of mosquito-borne diseases in Nepal.

Each trial contained an experimental citronella oil-applied group and a non-applied (control) group.
The test was divided into two trials: an indoor exposure test and an outdoor exposure test from 5.00 pm to 7.00 pm.
The outcome measures were the protective effect of citronella oil against mosquitoes, the number of mosquito bites, the repellency percentage, the smell satisfaction and the irritation level.
The topical application of citronella oil can be employed as an easily-available, affordable and effective alternative mosquito repellent to prevent mosquito-borne diseases in rural areas such as Tikapur, Nepal.
