Introduction to Eucalyptus Oil

Eucalyptus essential oil comes from the leaves of the eucalyptus tree,  an evergreen tree that is native to Australia. Aesthetically pleasing, these gum trees have been such an important part of Australian culture. Its pleasing scent has inspired Australian writers as these gum trees often found themselves a place in Australian literature.  On the other hand, thanks to its medicinal qualities, aboriginal people of Australia have made use of this tree for centuries!

Eucalyptus essential oil has a wide variety of uses all over the world today. It is effective in treating relieving sinuses, asthma, cold, flu, respiratory problems, and even small cuts/wounds thanks to its antimicrobial, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory qualities.

Common Uses of Eucalyptus Oil

Treating Sinusitis and Allergies

This essential oil can clear sinuses, remove sinus infection, and relieve the stuffy nose. One can achieve this in multiple ways. Diffusing into the air and breathing in, gargling diluted oil can help reduce the symptoms. Swallowing eucalyptus oil is not recommended. Additionally, it can also serve as a natural pesticide or a great ingredient for natural homemade cleaners to replace synthetic cleaners.

Treating Cold and Flu

Inhaling eucalyptus oil significantly helps open nasal passages. So, it helps people breathe more easily during cold and flu. This makes it much easier for a person, who came down with flu, to fall asleep. This oil is also useful during cold and flu because it fights microbes and viruses. Moreover, diffusing it into the air in your room will not only open your nose but also will cleanse the air. Besides, it has a sweet aroma that people love!

Natural Pesticide

Eucalyptus oil not only fights fungi and bacteria but also harmful pests. Studies show that this essential oil can prove to be a natural and environmentally friendly alternative to pesticides. However, its use against pests is not limited to botanical uses. People can also use it in their homes. People spray the pure oil on insects directly to eliminate them because it kills certain bugs on contact. On the other hand, it also works as a repellant. In addition, people use diluted eucalyptus oil on their plants at their houses to get rid of pest infestation.

Home Cleaner

Like I mentioned before, this oil can fight bacterias, viruses, and fungi, Thanks to this fact and also its aromatic scent, it is a great idea to add a few drops of it to your DIY homemade cleaners as people often do. Eucalyptus essential oils mix well with lavender oil. They both create a very aromatic and antiseptic homemade cleaner that is natural and safe!

Treating Small Cuts and Wounds

Just like tea tree oil, also native to Australia, eucalyptus oil can be used to treat small cuts and wounds because of its antiseptic qualities. Accordingly, both trees were a great source for the Aborigines as a natural medicine to treat cuts and wounds. This is especially because they can prevent infection because they fight bacterias.
