"My family lived off the land and summer evening meals featured baked stuffed tomatoes, potato salad, corn on the cob, fresh shelled peas and homemade ice cream with strawberries from our garden. With no air conditioning in those days, the cool porch was the center of our universe after the scorching days."

Tea Tree Oil Remedies - by RO

I use tea tree oil for throat infections, just rub a little on outside of the neck.

For blemishes rub it on.

My dog hasn't had a flea in years, I put a few drops of tea tree oil in their shampoo, no fleas or ticks also no bug bites.

No flu since I started adding tea tree oil to all my creams, shampoos.

Tea tree kills lice, keeps lice from getting on the grandkids to start a colony.

Recently I had a headache, nothing would stop it, I put some tea tree lotion on my finger, stuck it in my nose, in 3 minutes no headache. I am not generous with it just a few drops in case of irritation and the piney smell is strong.
