10 Ways to Use Thieves Oil Blend

DIY Thieves Oil Recipes and Uses


So you’ve heard about the power of essential oils to do everything from helping to clear and clean spaces to deterring silverfish.


Friends have swapped stories of how a single blend of oils has been so effective that they’ll use nothing else when it comes to disinfecting their home and protecting their family.


More than likely they are referring to an extremely potent blend of essential oils commonly referred to as Thieves Oil.

The Origins of Thieves Oil


In medieval times, during outbreaks of the black plague…you know the one where you caught a cold and then the chills and fever set in, your lymph nodes enlarged, then burst and finally your fingers and toes turned black with gangrene.


You were usually dead with 2 to 7 days of catching it!


In the 1300’s the Black Plague decimated Europe, killing up to 60% of the population.


With those sorts of statistics you can understand why the plague has been so greatly feared throughout the ages.


4 Thieves Vinegar was believed to protect users from the Black Death

Four Thieves Vinegar


Back in the time of the Black Death (also known as bubonic plague) when not much was known about its origins and how to combat it,  there was a much praised concoction,  of herbs seeped in vinegar that was said to protect you from contracting this deadly infection.


There were a variety of recipes for this apparent miracle protector.  They included herbs like rosemary, wormwood, rosemary, sage, lavender, camphor and of course garlic.


The story goes that four thieves created the initial formula to ward off the plague when they robbed the  dying and the dead.  That is why it was widely know as 4 Thieves Vinegar.

Thieves Oil Blend


Fast forward to the present time and the modern day  version of  four thieves vinegar has become Thieves Essential Oil Blend – and like in times of old, there are numerous recipes and formulations out there to choose from.

10 Ways to use your Thieves Oil Blend


  1.   Spray on pet’s beds to help reduce pet odours

  2.   Use as a room spray to freshen stale air

  3.   Keep a small bottle of the diluted spray in your handbag and spray on shopping trolley handles… have you seen the reports on the germs that grow on those things?

  4.   Apply a light spray to bed linens when travelling to help with keeping bed bugs at bay

  5.   Use the spray to wipe down phones and other equipment we place near our face and hands. It’s best to spray a clean cloth first then use the cloth to wipe down the appliance

  6.   Use as a toilet deodoriser

  7.   The spray is a  simple antibacterial solution for cleaning bathroom surfaces

  8.   Use the massage oil when you begin to feel unwell nauseas or  heady

  9.   Massage a little of the massage oil into feet after a long day to relax and restore your energy

  10.   Use undiluted on plantar warts on the feet.  (Important – see Caution and instructions  below)

Caution:


Do not use undiluted on skin except in the following circumstance:

You can apply 1 undiluted drop to plantar warts.  Apply only on the wart itself and not the skin around it.

You may have to do this every day for 3 to 4 weeks but they will eventually begin to shrink and die!

Continue the application until the last of the wart has disappeared.
