Uses for Eucalyptus Oil:

Clear Stuffy Nose

Research suggests that the oil fights respiratory infections by killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi. This is why you can find it in saline nasal wash. It also causes the tiny hair-like filaments in your lungs (called cilia) that sweep out mucus and debris from your airways to move faster. This can also fight infections.

Ease Arthritis Pain

Eucalyptus is a key ingredient in some topical analgesics. These are pain relievers you apply directly to your skin, such as sprays, creams, or salves. While it’s not the main painkiller, eucalyptus oil works by bringing a cold or warm sensation that takes your mind off the pain.

Post-Surgery Painkiller

In one clinical trial, people who breathed in eucalyptus oil after knee replacement surgery felt less pain and had lower blood pressure. Researchers think this may be due to something in the oil called 1,8-cineole. It may make your sense of smell work with your nervous system to lower your blood pressure.

Mosquito Repellent

The EPA’s list of effective, safe insect repellents is a short one, for both chemical and natural methods. A special kind of eucalyptus oil makes the cut. Oil of lemon eucalyptus (OLE) has a chemical called PMD that shoos away mosquitoes and other bugs. But don’t use it on children under 3. OLE has a different chemical makeup from lemon eucalyptus oil, although their names are similar.

Losen Head Lice

Take this, lice. A treatment of eucalyptus and tea tree oil did twice as well in a clinical trial as the old standby, pyrethrin. Not only did it kill 100% of lice and eggs, but it did it in only one dose. Other treatments needed several. Tests on skin revealed no irritation for adults or children, too.

Run Off Rodents

Are rats scurrying just a little too close for comfort? Keep them away with a eucalyptus oil solution. Spray it regularly in places where you see them. Many of the chemicals in it — especially 1,8-cineole — deal a powerful punch to pests. It’s kinder to the environment than harsh chemicals, too.
