It is the highly effective insect-repelling properties of lavender that drove us to develop this line of our products that is so welcomed by pet lovers.  

Like so many of its other properties, lavender’s potency as an insect repellant has a very long history. 

For centuries, sachets filled with lavender buds were used as an effective means of keeping moths out of linen drawers and closets.  Although not recognized at the time, the wearing of a lavender sachet around the neck to ward off the plague in many areas in Europe was in all likelihood due to the warding off of the fleas and their ability to transmit the disease from rats to humans.
