Frequently Asked Questions
Does citronella really help repel mosquitoes?
Citronella has been traditionally used as a natural insect deterrent and may help reduce mosquito landings by masking scents that attract insects. While it may not provide the same long-lasting protection as strong chemical repellents, many pet owners use it as a gentler, plant-based option for daily outdoor use.
Can citronella sprays kill mosquitoes?
No — citronella does not kill mosquitoes. It works mainly by helping to deter or repel them.
How long does citronella protection last?
Natural essential oil sprays evaporate faster than synthetic repellents, especially in Singapore's humid climate. Reapplication may be needed during longer outdoor activities.
Can I use this spray daily?
Yes — most dogs tolerate properly formulated citronella sprays well when used as directed. Avoid spraying near the eyes, nose, mouth or broken skin, and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Is this suitable for sensitive dogs?
Many pet owners choose natural sprays for dogs sensitive to stronger chemical-based products. A patch test is always recommended first.
Is citronella safe for dogs?
When used appropriately in dog-formulated products and according to instructions, citronella may help provide natural outdoor support. Always avoid contact with eyes and sensitive areas.
Is this suitable for cats?
No — this spray is formulated specifically for dogs. Cats are more sensitive to certain essential oils and grooming ingredients, so always use products formulated for feline use.
