Shoppers are rushing to buy a natural essential oil that not only smells beautiful but also banishes spiders from the home, available in a £2 Tuesday deal. The 100% natural peppermint oil from Nikura is normally priced at £4.99 for a 10ml bottle, but every Tuesday the price drops to just £2, making it an affordable solution for those looking to keep creepy crawlies at bay.
Why Peppermint Oil Works Against Spiders
Spiders are repelled by the strong scent of peppermint, which they find overwhelming and unpleasant. The Nikura Peppermint Essential Oil contains Piperita peppermint, known for its high menthol concentration and recognisably minty aroma. This natural deterrent can be used in a variety of ways to keep spiders and other insects like moths out of your living spaces.
Customer Reviews
Fans have given the oil a 4.9 out of five-star rating, with many praising its effectiveness. One satisfied customer said: "I buy this to put in diffusers in the corners of my rooms to prevent spiders... works a treat." Another added: "I was skeptical, but ten drops in a water sprayer does seem to work!" A third reviewer noted: "This is my second purchase of this gorgeous essential oil. It smells amazing and I use it as a deterrent for spiders and flying insects including moths."
How to Use the Oil
To create a household spray, mix 7-10 drops of Nikura Peppermint Essential Oil with 500ml water and a dash of dish soap. Spritz the mixture around doorways, windows, and corners to discourage spiders from entering. Alternatively, add a few drops to an oil diffuser to enjoy the uplifting and revitalising benefits of peppermint aromatherapy, which can also aid focus.
