Can you suggest a natural insect repellent?

Can you suggest an oil or a candle that I can burn? I am looking for something that will repel all insects.





I've heard that citronella is good but I'm not sure if it works just for mosquitoes or for all insects.Can you suggest a natural insect repellent?
Bugs hate citronella and also eucalyptus.Can you suggest a natural insect repellent?
It's correct that citronella is a natural insect repellent,readily available as oil or candles.


There are electronic deterrents available which emit ultrasonic sound and banish rodents as well as insects.


Consider also the type of light fitting seen in supermarkets,this has an ultra violet lamp which attracts and destroys flying insects.
There are iphone apps that supposedly repel insects. I have heard mixed reviews and you can't burn them (well, you could and that would be enough to drive anyone away, and it's expensive to burn an iphone, but it's probably not worth a bug bite or two) but it's worth a shot if you have it. :)
pieces of cedar wood! insects hate cedar!
the herb Tansy is supposed to repel flies
