For Children: Adults should use hands to apply to children. Apply sparingly, avoiding eyes, mouth, and hands.

Lightly mist coat or apply with hands. Massage into coat. Cover legs, underbelly, around ears and tail. Use hands to apply to face, avoiding eyes and mouth. Apply as needed or every 5-7 days. 

For Cats: Apply sparingly using hands or the Cedarcide Feat + Tick Brush. If sensitivity occurs, discontinue use and bathe.

Use on doorways, window frames, pet areas, carpeting, furniture, and other indoor spaces. Lightly mist or apply using a cloth. Do not use in food preparation areas. When spraying furniture or clothing, test on a small area first.

Exercise caution, floors and other surfaces may become slick. Apply as needed to kill and repel bugs, or weekly for prevention. To clean, use soap and water.

Cedarcide Original vs. Tickshield

Cedarcide Original and Tickshield are both family-safe bug sprays for personal, pet, and indoor use.

Tickshield is simply an extra strength version of Cedarcide Original, containing 20% cedarwood oil compared to Cedarcide Original’s 10%. Because of its stronger scent, we suggest consulting a veterinarian before using Tickshield on animals under 20 lbs.

How It Works

In case our name didn’t give it away, cedarwood oil is the driving force behind our pest control products here at Cedarcide. So naturally, the obvious question is: How does it work? How does cedarwood oil (aka cedar oil) kill bugs? While the answer can get a bit technical, there are 6 basic ways cedarwood oil works to kill and repel pests like fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, ants, mites and more. Here’s a simple outline of each one.

Dehydration

Most bugs are extremely sensitive to moisture loss, which is bad news for bugs that come into contact with cedarwood oil. Cedarwood oil is extremely effective at leaching moisture from insects and other bugs, leaving them dried out and eventually dead.

It Disrupts Their Pheromones

Pheromones are chemicals that many bugs use for navigation, mating, searching for food, as well as to regulate bodily functions. Cedarwood oil disrupts these pheromones which not only disorients the insects but interferes with their fundamental bodily processes like breathing. The disorientation helps repel insects and other bugs, the interference with their bodily mechanisms kills them.

It Dissolves Them

Insects in earlier life stages-eggs, larvae, pupae-are extremely vulnerable, so vulnerable in fact that cedarwood oil can dissolve them on contact. In adult insects, arachnids and other bugs, cedarwood oil helps dissolve their exoskeleton. This allows the essential oil to penetrate their shell, hastening the oil’s pest control effects.

Emulsification

Emulsification, or the breakdown of fat particles, is another way that cedarwood oil works to control bugs. Like many organisms, bugs require fat to live. By helping disintegrate this fat into smaller, more fluid parts, cedarwood oil attacks bugs from the inside out.

Suffocation

As mentioned above, cedarwood oil can interfere with bugs’ capacity to breathe. Unlike mammals, bugs breathe through openings located on the surface of their bodies. When faced with the lethal effects of cedarwood oil, bugs attempt to limit their exposure by closing these openings, which prevents them from breathing. In other words, the bugs suffocate themselves.

It Messes With Their Body Chemistry

Like most every living thing, bugs must maintain a specific chemical balance to stay alive. Any drastic changes in this balance can have deadly results. Cedarwood oil neutralizes the acidity within bugs’ bodies, effectively throwing this balance out of whack. As a result they cannot properly function, and shortly die.

  1. Dusty –

    I’ve been using this product for years and have been very happy with the results. I recently started a new job as a utility inspector in rural Arkansas and we have a bad tick problem. The other guys on my crew are using DEET products and are still getting ticks on them. I’ve been spraying my boots, legs, and the inside and outside of my pants legs and have not had one tick climb up my legs. I also spray the underside of the bill of my ball cap to keep flying bugs out of my face. It works great. My only complaint is the one gallon jug is a pain to refill the spray bottle.

      Dusty, thanks for the review!

      So glad to here you’re getting the results you want, we wouldn’t expect anything less from Cedarcide Original. It’s what we all personally use when we venture outdoors, along with Extra Strength Tickshield. We’re here if you need anything else! 🙂

  2. Cait Galim –

    Cedarcide has taken care of my house and family for 5 years now.

    I’ve applied it outside and indoors to get rid of sugar ants, with great success. (I applied it on outdoors ants close to my foundation, and applied it inside (twice in two weeks). It lasted a couple years.

    It got rid of a hive of ground bees living outside my front door. In one (generous) application.

    It’s been my flea/tick spray for pets and family: I keep it with me while hiking and backpacking. (I do use a backup ingestable flea prevention with my mutts as well.)

    It even took care of the dreaded kindergarten lice event in one application (though I did a second anyway because I was grossed out).

    I will not be living without cedarcide again. Ever. I love that’s it’s a natural solution that works so well.
