Tallow Bug Repellent
Tallow bug repellent is a natural, skin-friendly insect repellent made with beef tallow as its base. It’s a chemical-free alternative to commercial repellents like DEET, and it's often infused with essential oils that are known to repel bugs—such as mosquitoes, ticks, flies, and gnats.
Our tallow-based bug repellent combines:
Grass-fed beef tallow – as the main carrier and skin barrier
Essential oils – such as citronella, eucalyptus, lemongrass, peppermint, white thyme, vanilla, and rosemary
Witchhazel
Coconut Oil
The essential oils are the active insect-repelling agents. Each oil has a strong natural scent that bugs dislike or that interferes with their ability to find you.
Common oils and their targets:
Citronella – mosquitoes
Eucalyptus – ticks & mosquitoes
Lemongrass – flies, mosquitoes
Peppermint – ants, spiders, mosquitoes
Lavender – soothing + repels moths and fleas
Cedarwood – ticks and mosquitoes
Tallow holds these oils on the skin longer than water-based sprays, offering more durable protection.
Benefits
Nourishes skin while protecting from bugs
No synthetic chemicals, alcohol, or preservatives
Longer-lasting than typical sprays (especially in balm form)
Eco-friendly and biodegradable
Often smells better than conventional repellents
