Useful pack
This seems a decent refill package to help keep the wasps away when outdoors on a summer's day. However, with the weather that we have had this year, I cannot say that I have even seen any wasps. We quite often have nests in the hedgerow of our garden, but this year there have been none. It has therefore been impossible for me to test this properly at this stage. However, on the basis of the scent of the product - which smells like a citronella soap, this should do the job properly. The scent is not overly strong, but the instructions state just 6 drops per 100ml dilution. Although I could not find it written on the spray bottle, the bottle size is 200ml, so 12 drops per bottle. Alternatively, the instructions state the the product can be used in an oil diffuser or burner, or just soak into cotton wool balls.

Easy to use
There are some quite strong claims made about this wasp, bee & hornet repellent, hopefully it can live up to them. I haven't seen anything to say it doesn't, but I haven't had any wasps around to test it on. As far as I'm aware, peppermint oil can be effective against wasps, but when I spray it the primary smell, to my nose, is citronella (hopefully the other oils are actually in there).The instructions for making up the bottle of repellent using the oil bottle are very clear and easy to follow. The bottle itself has a basic lock to prevent accidental spraying, which is nice. It would be nice if you could alter the spray type along a spectrum between "mist" and "squirt", but unfortunately it seems to only offer quite a fine mist.This "make your own repellent" set is selling for £9.99, showing as reduced from £12.99, at the time of this review. If it works, and you do actually get 50 bottles out of it, then I think that's a good price.

Smells lovely.
Handy to have, easy to mix. Approx 100mls of water to 6 odd drops of oil added to a spray bottle. Then you are good to go!Have tried it a couple of times in the garden when eating. Basically, spray a fine mist lightly over table & chairs. The mist drys, leaving a barrier that acts as the repellent. Smells lovely & fresh.Seemed to work, we certainly weren't bothered with to many insects. I think the real test will be late summer when wasps go crazy for sweet things. So any drinks or sweet desserts attracts them.Have tried spraying around open windows in the house too.It's a reasonably priced product & has a lovely smell.

Works
Works fine to get rid of bees, I had them in the walls of our home so I put some of it neat around and inside the hole and then kept spraying every day. I've noticed a lot less bees and they stay away from the hole now so it must be working.

Pleasant scent and it did repel insects
I ordered this product with the intention of making up a dilute solution and spraying the top of my garden table before taking food or drink outdoors to deter flying insects. I find the citrus scent of the liquid pleasant but there has not been much opportunity to sit outside since it was delivered. However, I can report that it does seem to have the desired effect of repelling insects. On pulling up a weed between the paving slabs in front of my door I disturbed an ants nest that must have been beneath the slab. In an ad hoc attempt to deter the ants from coming into my house I put a line of drops of the neat liquid as a barrier in front of my doorstep. After about 15 minutes I noticed that the ants had spread in all other directions but did not approach my door, seemingly deterred by by the liquid.

Work as expected
I've used essential oils (mainly peppermint) before to repel pests in both my garden sheds and also around the house. I've usually had good results with this so thought I'd order this repellent spray to see how it would fare.The Crystal Opus Wasp, Bee and Hornet repellent spray is a blend of essential oils that actually smell very nice. We live in the countryside so every year we have to deal with wasps nesting in the sheds and also other insects around the house. Using a natural product that is safe for my cat is essential so happy to see that this is pet friendly. I really like the small dispenser too, 100 ml of water and 6 drops of essential oil, a good shake and you are ready. The spray nozzle produce a fine mist that will cover evenly the treated surfaces.Overall I'm very happy with this spray. It goes a long way without harming the environment. Recommended.

Brilliant value for money.
I have the Crystal Opus dog training repellant which works brilliantly for stopping my dog chewing household items, so I had high hopes for the Wasp, Bee & Hornet Repellent Spray, and I'm happy to say that I'm certainly not disappointed.The pack comes with the bottle of the essential oil, plus an empty spray bottle to make up the solution with. The essential oil is a blend of a few different oils, but my nose can detect the peppermint and lemongrass in it.The repellant can be made up by putting100ml of water into the spray bottle and then by adding 6 drops of the essential oil. It can then be sprayed around windows and walkways etc that tend to attract these flying pests. Another method is to add 5 or 6 drops of the oil to cotton wool balls and place the balls where the wasps etc tend to congregate. The oil can also be added to a humidifier/diffuser too, which is what we do when out in the garden. We place our USB rechargeable diffuser on our garden table while eating and drinking outside. This also helps to create a nice ambience for our al fresco dining with the diffuser mist and the fragrance of the oil, as well as being able to eat without being bothered by wasps etc.The repellant is humane and doesn't harm pests or humans.There is enough oil to make up 50 odd spray bottles worth of repellant, making absolutely excellent value for money. In my opinion, this is a great product that I'm happy to recommend it.

Very nice scenting oil
This essential concentrated mix of oils is very nice and mixes to form a nice solution for the provided sprayer bottle.I have upped the mix compared to the suggested mix and I am using it as a preventative to where we have issues before and I have not noticed any return of wasps in the warmer weather that we have had, so, so far so good!
