7. Bug Repellent

Emu oil contains high amounts of terpenes, which disorient some insects and outright repel many others. This makes it an ideal non-toxic bug repellent, especially for pets, to whom more common bug repellents are toxic. To make use of emu oil as a repellent, apply it to your bare skin before venturing outdoors.
