Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this tea tree oil and was pleased overall -- the oil was well-packaged, a quality product delivered on time. It's got great soothing qualities for skin and hair, and can also be used homeopathically and very effectively as an insect repellent in nooks and crannies under cabinets. However, please BE WARNED. Tea tree oil is also VERY toxic, a fact I wish I'd known before purchase, because I was spraying it liberally on sleep pillows with lavender, all sorts of stuff, simply thinking it would add a pleasant scent (which it did). However, recent articles I found floored me because I quickly realized tea tree oil is highly toxic to children and animals, ESPECIALLY cats, who evidently need only a small topical exposure in some cases to lead directly liver failure and death! So be warned -- it's a great essential oil and offers many proven homeopathic remedies, but if you are a cat owner, use with extreme caution, and never in ways that will result in direct contact with your cat. NEVER use it as a pet shampoo additive, and keep it away from pets and children. Use cautiously. Otherwise, it's pleasant, more than fairly priced, and mixes well with lavender and rosemary for pleasant scents in linen closets or under cabinets. Just use it carefully!
