Humans have used essential oils for various purposes, such as supporting optimal health and influencing mood.

As preppers, homesteaders and survivalists, when SHTF you can also use various essential oils to keep your home clean and disinfected. (h/t to HappyPreppers.com)

What are essential oils?

Essential oils are a "volatile aroma compound" that comes from plant stems, roots and leaves.

While the word "volatile" sounds harsh, it means that a substance is easily evaporated at normal temperatures. In other words, volatile compounds are vaporous.

The practice of using essential oils is called aromatherapy. In part, this kind of therapy includes smelling the pleasant vapors of various oils, like Frankincense Serrata.

Get these essential oils for your survival stockpile

Here are some essential oils that you can get for your prepper stockpile before SHTF:

Lavender essential oil

Lavender essential oil has a soothing and relaxing scent that can also help reduce anxious feelings.

Additionally, you can use lavender essential oil to make your home smell pleasant. Add a couple of drops of the essential to several cotton balls and hide them in your trash can or the shoe closet to get rid of unpleasant odors.

Peppermint essential oil

Peppermint essential oil is one of the best starter essential oils for preppers. This essential oil is revitalizing, invigorating and cooling when applied topically.

Like lavender, peppermint essential oil can also make your home smell pleasant. Combined with a carrier oil, peppermint essential oil can also help relieve sore muscles and joints.

Lastly, peppermint essential oil can be used to get rid of spiders, rodents, ants, fleas, mosquitoes and lice. (Related: Natural and effective cleaning supplies you can use to safely disinfect your home.)
