Description

Citronella is a plant that belongs to the genus Cymbopogon. Citronella oil is most commonly used as an ingredient in insect repellent. It is also used in vitro to inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria, and has been shown to have antioxidative properties. There are no reports of any adverse effects from citronella oil when used at recommended levels for up to 12 weeks. The only reported side effect from long-term use is skin irritation, which can be attributed to the high concentration of citronellal in the oil. Citronella can be administered topically or orally, but should not be taken by mouth if it has not been diluted with a carrier oil.
